Bayelsa State Governor, Douye Diri, has resigned his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

According to Arise TV, the governor joined the ruling APC alongside 23 members of the Bayelsa State House of Assembly.

This is coming barely 24 hours after the Enugu State Governor, Peter Mbah also joined the ruling party.

Although details of the move remain sketchy, it was gathered that the governor and the lawmakers may be preparing to officially announce their defection to the APC in the coming days.

Several federal and state lawmakers recently dumped opposition parties for the APC ahead of the 2027 general elections.
