The Edo South lawmaker, who was elected on the Labour Party platform, plans to make his defection public on Thursday, June 12, 2025.
Imaseun headed the committee that recommended the suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan for six months.
Speaking in Benin during the anniversary of his second year as a senator, Imasuen cited internal disarray within the Labour Party as a key reason for his move.
He described the defection as a strategic step to better align Edo South with federal development priorities under President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
Speaking on his achievements, Imasuen pointed to his role in sponsoring the Federal College of Education, Abudu (Establishment) Bill and resolving over 20 public petitions through his committee.
He also mentioned various community programs, including vocational training schemes, agricultural support for rubber, cocoa, and cashew farmers, rural initiatives, and scholarships for students in his senatorial district.
“As Chairman of the Senate Committee on Ethics and Public Petitions, we have addressed more than 20 public petitions from across the country, making a significant impact in the lives of ordinary Nigerians,” Imasuen said.
He expressed commitment to supporting President Tinubu’s policies and called for stronger cooperation with local governments, promising continued focus on health, youth empowerment, and rural development in Edo South.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
