Dr Samuel Tsebe, a member of the Nasarawa State Independent Electoral Commission (NASIEC), has resigned from the All Progressives Congress (APC) and joined the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
Tsebe, a former member representing Akwanga South Constituency in the Nasarawa State House of Assembly, disclosed his decision in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Akwanga on Monday.
He said he resigned from the APC to pursue his political ambitions and contribute to the development of his community and the country.
The NASIEC commissioner said he had formally submitted his resignation letter to the APC chairman of his ward, Akwanga West Electoral Ward.
Tsebe said he took the decision on personal grounds and had subsequently defected to the SDP.
“This is to pursue my future political ambition in order to serve my people, my community and the nation at large,” he said.
The former lawmaker thanked the APC and its leadership for giving him opportunities to serve in various capacities during his time in the party.
He also called on Nigerians to support the SDP ahead of the 2027 general elections, expressing confidence in the party’s prospects.
