The Political transfer window is well and truly open after a Senator representing Ebonyi state and 14 others pulled of their own defection, dumping PDP for APC.
The movement, for the most part, had been from APC with prominent names such as Bukola Saraki, Aminu Tambuwal and so on, making the move from the APC to PDP.
However, it seems APC are on the counter-attack after pulling off a coup with the reported defection of Godswill Akpabio from the PDP to APC.
Now, a Senator representing Ebonyi South Senatorial District, Sonni Ogbuoji, and an ex-Minister of State for Power and Steel, Goddy Ogbaga along with 13 others have now moved to APC too.

The defecting parties made this known at a rally in honour of President Muhammadu Buhari and the party’s National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole in Abakaliki, Ebonyi state.
Adams Oshiomhole welcomed the defection, welcoming the movers and stating that it was a bold move.
He said: “We now have an elected senator, Chief Sonni Ogbuoji, who has decided that the PDP’s umbrella is shredded that it can no longer protect any one. He has now joined the progressives.
“He has watched the determination of the APC-led Federal Government to flush out all crises inflicted on the country by the immediate past administration of the PDP.”
