Governor Peter Mbah’s recent defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) has sparked an unexpected economic ripple in Enugu State, with broom traders witnessing a surge in sales, as reported by PUNCH on Tuesday October 14 2025.
Following a cabinet meeting, Mbah and his appointees officially joined the APC, a move confirmed in a viral video showing government officials waving APC flags and chanting praises for both Governor Mbah and President Bola Tinubu.
The broom, a symbol of the APC, has since become a hot commodity across markets in Enugu.
At the bustling Artisan Market, broom seller Mrs. Grace Okeke shared her experience with reporters, expressing both surprise and delight at the sudden boom in business.
She said the political shift has turned her modest broom stall into a center of attention for party loyalists preparing for an upcoming APC event.
In her words,
“How I wish this kind of political event that will take place tomorrow would be happening in Enugu daily.’ As I speak with you, I don’t have a single broom because the APC people came to clear all the brooms for their event tomorrow.” See, More, Here>>>
