Nigeria Nollywood Actress Tonto Dikeh Switches Allegiances, Joins Ruling APC After Leaving ADC

Popular Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh, has made a surprising move by joining the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). The announcement came through the official APC account on Monday.

Tonto Dikeh, who previously held the position of Rivers State deputy governorship candidate for the African Democratic Congress (ADC) during the 2023 general election, was unveiled as a new member of the APC at the party's National Secretariat in Abuja. The party's national women leader, Dr. Mary Alile, and deputy national publicity secretary, Hon. Duro Meseko, officially introduced her to the party.

This switch from the ADC to the APC marks a significant change in Tonto Dikeh's political affiliations. While the reasons for this move are not mentioned in the report, it demonstrates the fluid nature of Nigerian politics, where political figures can change party allegiances relatively easily.

Tonto Dikeh's decision to join the APC will undoubtedly bring attention and potentially influence to the party, as she is a well-known figure in Nigeria's entertainment industry. It remains to be seen how her involvement will impact the party's activities and her future political role.
