Success Opara Dumps ADC, joins APP, Citing injustice in ADC.
Success Opara, a prominent figure in Imo State politics, has defected from the African Democratic Congress (ADC) to the Action Peoples Party (APP), citing injustice within the ADC as the reason for his move.
Opara, who previously served as the Local Government Chairman of ADC Owerri Municipal, had been a key player in the party’s growth in Imo State. His decision to join the APP is seen as a significant boost to the party’s chances in the 2027 governorship election.
According to sources, Opara’s defection is linked to perceived injustices and internal conflicts within the ADC. The APP, led by Dr. Chima Amadi, has been gaining momentum in Imo State, with several notable politicians joining the party.
Opara’s move is expected to strengthen the APP’s grassroots presence and increase its chances of challenging the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state. The APP has been positioning itself as a viable alternative to the APC, with key politicians like Peter Obi and Matthew Nwogu aligning with the party.
As the political landscape in Imo State continues to shift, Opara’s defection is likely to have significant implications for the upcoming elections.
