About 500 members of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), have defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kuje Area Council.

Former PDP stalwarts, Sarkin Samari of Kayarda, Alhaji Abdulhameed Idris Sabo, Hajiya Ramatu Idris, Yahaya Mohammed Gambo were among those that decamped from the party in the area.

Receiving the former PDP members, the APC chairman in Kuje, Mr Godwin Poyi, commended them for their bold step in joining the ruling APC, noting that their decision was a clear indication that the present administration has performed credibly well.

He said, “APC is a viable alternative for good governance, we would carry you all along in the council’s affairs.”

Speaking on behalf of the decampees, a former PDP stalwart, Yahaya Mohammed Gambo, said they decamped due to impunity and lack of internal democracy in the PDP.

Gambo said they would work vigorously to ensure the victory of APC in the 2019 elections in the area.

On his part, the chairman of the council, Alhaji Abdullahi D. Galadima, appreciated the efforts of the former PDP stalwarts and members for identifying with the APC in the area council.

”My administration would treat you all equally with other members of the party based on open door policy devoid of any religious, tribal or party bias,” Galadima assure decampee.
