President Buhari was quoted to have welcomed him to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“You are welcome to the progressives family,’’ Buhari said.
It would be recalled that Senator Nwaoboshi was suspended from the PDP a few days ago over “anti-party” activities.
The Senator was recently discharged by the Federal High Court sitting in Lagos from the N322million money laundering charge filed against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
