The Action Peoples Party (APP) has announced the defection of two serving members of the House of Representatives and a former lawmaker to join the party. This development is expected to bolster the party's political structure and campaign for the 2027 general elections. The newly defected lawmakers include Boma Goodhead, Alozie Ikechi, and Uju Chima, who will represent Akuku-Toru/Asari-Toru, Obingwa/Ugwunagbo/Osisioma, and Oguta/Ohaji-Egbema/Oru West Federal Constituencies, respectively.

The APP described the defection as a major boost ahead of the upcoming elections, stating that the party is a platform focused on the people's interests and seeks to change old ways for a new approach dominated by the people's needs.
