The 2023 governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Rivers State, Magnus Abe, has declared his intention to leave the party and join the All Progressives Congress (APC).
During an appearance on Channels Television’s “Politics Today” programme on Monday, Abe stated, “Politically, I am heading back for the APC.”
This announcement follows his unsuccessful bid for the governorship on March 18.
Abe, an ally of President Bola Tinubu, contested in the Rivers State governorship election but was defeated by Siminalayi Fubara of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). 
Furthermore, his attempt to become the minister representing Rivers State in the federal cabinet was unsuccessful, as the position went to Nyesom Wike, the immediate past governor, now the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
