Rivers State Lawmaker, Linda Stewart, Reverses Defection, Returns To PDP

Hon. Linda Somari Stewart, the lawmaker representing Okrika in the Rivers State House of Assembly, has reportedly made a U-turn on her earlier defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

According to reports from the south-south state, Stewart has officially returned to the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

Her return to the PDP places her firmly within the camp of Governor Siminalayi Fubara, the state leader.

The reversal marks a significant political move within Rivers, potentially altering the dynamics and alliances within the state’s political landscape as the crisis between Governor Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, continues.

Stewart’s decision to rejoin the PDP comes after her initial departure from the party, indicates that the governor is gradually gaining grounds in the state.
