In their separate remarks, the defecting members said they left APC due to lost confidence in the party at both state and central levels, adding that the party failed in its responsibilities to carry all bonafide members along.
They explained that they could no longer stay in a party they have no trust on, hence the need for them and thousands of supporters to settle for another party they trust.
