8 PDP Ex-Aspirants Defect To APC In Zamfara by Afonja2: 12:37pm On Jan 17, 2023
Eight former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) State House of Assembly aspirants have defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

A statement issued in Gusau on Tuesday by the state APC Publicity Secretary, Yusuf Idris said the former aspirants announced their defection at a meeting with Gov. Bello Matawalle on Tuesday in Gusau.

Idris said all of them had participated in various PDP state assembly primary elections in their respective constituencies across the state.

According to him, the defectors included: Kasimu Jafaru from Zurmi west constituency, Rukkayya Abdullahi from Zurmi east constituency, Isah Ibrahim-Labbo from Anka constituency and Abubakar Abdulaziz, from Tsafe east constituency.

The other defectors were: Bala Ibrahim and Jamilu Bawa from Birnin Magaji state assembly constituencies, Ibrahim Surajo from Zurmi west and the leader of the defecting team, Murtala Mainasara from Shinkafi constituency.

He said the defectors, who were presented to the governor by the state APC Chairman, Alhaji Tukur Danfulani, submitted all their PDP certificates of clearance to the governor.

“Our decision to join APC was due to a lack of political focus and direction in the PDP.

“Our defection to the APC was informed by the focused and visionary leadership style of governor Matawalle in tackling insecurity and bringing economic transformation,” Idris quoted Mainasara as saying.

Idris also quoted Matawalle as saying while receiving the defectors that APC was a party for all reasonable and patriotic Nigerians focusing on development.

“The governor commended them for what he described as a wise decision of joining the APC.

“Matawalle said he is not surprised over their decision considering their level of exposure and determination to bring development to the doorsteps of the electorate,” Idris said.

Earlier, while presenting the defectors to the governor, Danfulani said: ‘Ín the next few days, more PDP supporters would join APC.”

As usual, APC needs to heal from the recent calamities and defection that has hit them hard. It is funny that bulaba and mikano are calling for each other's arrest while obedients keep watching. Please entertain us more.

Intercede:
APC and PDP are the same


PDP and Labour Party are bound by the same unbroken thread. No question about that. Obi snatched Labour Party and made it a mainly Igbo party even after the party had concluded its presidential primaries, the same way Nnamdi Azikiwe snatched and appropriated Nigerian Peoples Party, NPP, as Igbo party in 1978. NPP was founded and funded by Alhaji Waziri Ibrahim who went on to register Great Nigerian Peoples Party after the Igbo forced him out. The Igbo have never pioneered a nationalistic political party. The NCNC they now love to call theirs was founded by Herbert Macaulay. Check the history books if you're in doubt. Nobody is making anything up. No cursing, please! Learn to accept Truth as truth!

Igbos spent 7 years plus to curse Nigeria, curse the Yorubas, Fulanis and other ethnic groups. Declared Nigeria a zoo and citizens zoo animals etc..... 6 months to election one of their kinsman is in the race, they become patriotic, sing national anthem at every gathering, declared their kinsman Messiah of Nigeria and curse every human that ask questions about their so called Messiah that couldn't save small Anambra.....

These people are clowns I swear. I can't wait for February 25 when Nigeria will become "zoo" again. grin

Quit being entitled. No one, not the Yorubas nor the Hausas owe you anything. Rally your people to vote for your candidate and let others do same, stop expecting people to vote for your candidate against their own political choices. By the way, you guys suck at political diplomacy, rather than build bridges, you all destroy it with your hatred, blackmail, propaganda and bigotry. Anyways, the day if reckoning is almost here.
