Maurice Omin-Iso

Maurice Omin-Iso is a former chieftain of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) in Cross River State, Nigeria, who recently defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC). A successful businessman and grassroots politician, Omin-Iso cited Governor Bassey Otu's track record in infrastructural development and effective governance as key reasons for his switch. He described the PDP as a 'sinking ship' and emphasized his belief in the progressive policies of the APC, asserting that his decision was based on the party's performance and not on any fear of persecution.
