Hon. Natasha Osawaru-Idibia, the lawmaker representing Egor Constituency in the Edo State House of Assembly and wife of music superstar 2Baba, has announced her defection to the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC).
The lawmaker was received into the party alongside former Gombe State Deputy Governor, John Yoriyo, and other political figures by the party’s national leader, Seriake Dickson, among others
While speaking at the event, Dickson promised the new members of fairness, inclusiveness and equal opportunities within the party, stressing that the NDC is committed to internal democracy and youth participation.
Natasha Osawaru expressed confidence in the future of the party, hailing Dickson’s leadership and stating that the NDC could soon become a major political force in the country.
Former federal lawmaker Ehiozuwa Agbonayinma also described the movement as one gaining national acceptance and capable of reshaping Nigeria’s political landscape.
Activist Aisha Yesufu, who recently left the African Democratic Congress, said the movement represents a new direction for Nigerian politics and called for a society where opportunities are based on merit rather than connections.
