The defection took place at Ihima in Okehi local government area of Kogi State, and the defectors, include former Okehi local government chairman, Hassan Yusuf, Special Adviser Rafatu Haruna, and APC chieftain, Omuya Longman.

They were received by Senator Natasha who emphasized that grassroots engagement is her core strategy, aiming to strengthen the PDP and make it a formidable force in Kogi Central and across Nigeria.

Also speaking, the state PDP Chairman, Enemona Anyebe, described the mass defection as a powerful endorsement of Senator Natasha's leadership, as the lawmaker hopes Nigeria's political system will evolve to where parties define their beliefs, avoiding violence and intimidation.
