The Deputy Governor of Rivers State Engr. Tele Ikuru defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Engr. Tele Ikuru declared his defection yesterday the 22nd of March 2015, six days to the Presidential general elections.

‘’In a statement titled “A call on the conscience of the people of Rivers State”, the deputy governor said: “Ever since, as the true nature and motives of APC are unveiled, I have continued to twist and turn in extreme mental and emotional agony''.
“The more I struggle to belong, the more the Rivers man in me rejects the APC.”He described the APC as a party of rebels, insurgents and anarchists''.
Tele Ikuru said his decision revolved on the fact that he would not want to be listed as part of a generation that would witch hunt and hound down the very first ever President from the region, it appears that he was referring to the incumbent President seeking re-election in the presidential election that is to hold on March 28, 2015.
“I wash my hands of this treachery and in the light of the above, I wish to urge all my supporters, the good people of Rivers State to join hands with other well-meaning Nigerians to massively vote for President Goodluck Jonathan and the Transformation Agenda that has brought so much relief and succour to the greatest number of Nigerians''.
“I also urge all Rivers people to vote for Chief Nyesom Wike (CON), who has shown by his antecedents, track records and boundless capabilities that he will deliver good governance to the people of Rivers State''.
