The Nigerian Senate, was thrown into a rowdy session as it was about recording official cross-carpeting for the year 2018 from People Democratic Party, PDP to the All Progressive Congress, APC.

Senator Sonni Ogbuoji ( Ebonyi South) had come under order 43 of the rules of the Red Chamber to announce his official defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC)

While the members of the PDP and APC did not allow Ogbuoji to finish when the floor was thrown into rowdiness, with the APC Senators dragging the new defector to their wing while PDP lawmakers scampered to rescue him to their side. 

Senator Ogbuoji, however in a twist of event,announced that he was withdrawing his earlier announcement.
