Except for a last minute change, a former governor of Kano State, Ibrahim Shekarau, will announce his defection from the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, to Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, following a mouth-watering ‘bounty’ allegedly offered him by the the PDP presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar. Mr Shekarau, who represents Kano Central at the Senate, had officially defected from APC to NNPP in a letter read during plenary by the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, on June 29. Despite securing the automatic senatorial ticket of NNPP, DAILY NIGERIAN gathered that Mr Shekarau sneaked into Lagos on June 24 for a meeting with Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi to serve as his running-mate. It was gathered the talks with Labour Party collapsed after APC and PDP leaders began efforts to woo the former governor into their fold. When NNPP leaders learnt about Mr Shekarau’s planned defection, a 3-man delegation comprising the NNPP governorship candidate Abba Kabir-Yusuf, the senatorial candidate of Kano South Kawu Sumaila and a candidate of House of Representatives Kabiru Rurum, sought audience with him on Friday night in Abuja, but Mr Shekarau refused to see them. Credible sources familiar with Mr Shekarau’s clandestine moves and separate meetings with the PDP presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar; his running-mate Ifeanyi Okowa and; the national chairman of the party, Iyochia Ayu, said the former governor had “reached a deal” with the PDP and is expected to formally announce his defection soon. The Shura Consultative Assembly meeting held on Sunday August 14, 2022 at Shekarau’s Mundubawa residence. According to an insider, the former governor on Sunday summoned an emergency meeting of his political advisory council, dubbed the Shura Consultative Assembly, and informed the members about the latest development. DAILY NIGERIAN gathered that a 21-member committee will meet on Tuesday (today) at 4pm to finalise the defection arrangements and ways to manage public criticisms that may trail Mr Shekarau’s unexpected political detour. A source familiar with the meeting said as part of the exit plans, the presidential candidate of PDP Atiku Abubakar will come to Mr Shekarau’s Mundubawa residence to “woo” him before the formal announcement. “The truth is that Atiku has made some mouth-watering offers such as ministerial and parastatal slots to Mallam. This is in addition to appointing him as the North West campaign coordinator and in charge of campaign finances in the region,” said the insider. Another source close to Mr Shekarau, however, said the senator decided to dump the NNPP and abandon his senatorial candidacy because the NNPP failed to accommodate some of his associates. “The NNPP only offered the senatorial ticket to Shekarau without giving any ticket to Mallam’s associates. So there is deep resentment in among Shekarau’s associates who felt that Mallam only negotiated his senatorial slot alone and did not make efforts for them,” said the source. Mr Shekarau’s spokesman, Sule Yau Sule, could not be reached for comment at the time of filing this report. 1 Like

Fake news So how will he now secure places for his followers in PDP where all tickets have been taken? Since that's the grouse with NNPP. Shekarau has been minister before,so there's nothing mouth watery about the offer. This is fake news. 1 Like |

Indispensable85: My view too. Though, he may remain NNPP to win his senatorial seat and work for Atiku presidency. I think it's the same plan with Kwakwaso, to win the Guber election for Abba and work for Atiku presidency. 1 Like 2 Shares |

Indispensable85:it could not be fake news because the news says "there is resentment among his associates that Shekarau only fought for his ambition" and mind you Shekarau wants to maintain his popularity in Kano. Shekarau is a kind of person that makes sure his followers' ambitions are respected and achieved which is the best way to keep your fanbase as a leadership. He could sacrificed the said ambition or just declared for PDP Presidency and Governorship while in NNPP. 1 Like 2 Shares |

Prince111111: The simple question is: how is he now going to get places in the PDP for his followers if that's the grouse? There's no space in the PDP as long as ticket is concerned. So is he going to hold on to a promise that may never materialize? There's no guarantee that Atiku will win the election. Too many movements make you lose your followers. 1 Like |

We warned earlier That Kwankwaso and Shekarau can't stay in the same party together, they are both ego centric Shekarau is only in NNPP to win his senatorial election, he will never support Kwankwaso's presidential ambition. 4 Likes |

ChangetheChange: Only a foolish brain dead lunatic like you rate our politicians highly. They're just as unintelligent like you and that's the reason they always deceive gullible fools like you. Most of them are still relevant today because of dunce like you who are incapable of any intellectual thinking. This same shekarau defected to PDP in 2015 to support Jonathan and lost out woefully.

ChangetheChange: Shekarau is not even a factor in Kano politics today. He was in PDP in 2015 when Apc got 1.9million votes. He couldn't even get 25percent for Jonathan as a serving minister. You're too empty upstairs. You don't know anything. 1 Like |

If shekau fall for this trap, that will be the end of shakau politically. Because only him is the one moving from one political party to the others, all because hee wants to retain power. If Atiku promise him of ministering slots, how does this guarantee if winning to Atiku? 1 Like |

He is already setting the pace for Kwankwaso to join him letter. All the noise was just a distraction. Atiku has not won but he has started sharing our collective heritage to his friends and cronies as patronage. The same thing he did under Obasanjo that made OBJ to curse him. Anyways, Kwankwaso teaming up with Atiku as expected can only affect Tinubu because both of them are targeting the same NW and it's a win-win for Obi 1 Like |
