7000 Pdp Members In Sokoto Defect To APC by garfield1(op): 8:47am On Sep 17, 2022
As 2023 general election inches closer, series of defections have continued to hit the two major political parties in Sokoto State, the latest being about 7,000 supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party who dumped the party for the All Progressives Congress, alleging that the PDP had failed in all sectors of developments.

This is according to a press statement by the Special Assistant, New Media, to Senator Aliyu Wamakko, Bashar Abubakar, and made available to newsmen on Friday.

The statement followed the massive defection that has continued to hit the ruling PDP in the state.

The defectors, who were received by the APC governorship candidate in the state, Ahmad Aliyu, in the Wurno Local Government Area of the state, included over 4,270 PDP supporters from the LGA.

The governorship candidate expressed satisfaction on the large number of PDP supporters that dumped the party for the APC, saying,”…there is light at the end of the tunnel.”


Aliyu, who represented the APC leader in the state, Senator Aliyu Wamakko, assured the defectors of equal treatment.

He assured that his administration would continue from the giant strides of the former governor of Sokoto State, Wamakko.

He pledged to reconstruct the Huchi Road, which was damaged by flood, if elected as governor come 2023.

Aliyu described the ruling party in the state as a failed party, saying, “(The) PDP in the state has failed woefully as none of the promises made was fulfilled to the people of the state.”

Speaking in his remarks, the APC chairman in the state, Isah Achida, while welcoming the defectors, said the party was always ready to carry all along to ensure its victory at all levels.


Similarly, over 1,400 PDP loyalists joined the APC at Achida town of the Wurno local government area, the home town of the state APC chairman, Achida.

The Wurno local government APC chairman, Alhaji Musa Marnona, explained that, on their part, they would continue to work hard for the success of the party in the area.

While in Gidan Rugga Ward of Kware local government, 1,000 PDP supporters were received into the APC.

Several defectors who spoke on why they dumped the PDP for the APC said the PDP lacked focus and direction to rule the state.

They described the APC leadership in the state under Wamakko as trustworthy and accommodative.


They also promised to continue to support the party to ensure the victory of its candidates at all levels.

Other APC leaders who witnessed the event include the deputy governorship candidate, Idris Gobir; APC Sokoto East Senatorial Candidate, Alhaji Ibrahim Isa, and former Ambassador Abubakar Wurno, among other dignitaries.

So for your Mind you feel say APC get mouth for Sokoto??

I noticed you ask, some "slightly intelligent" questions....trying to "gauge" the voting strengths of other candidates except yours. (Tinubu)

Its pertinent to tell you this, so you dont disgrace yourself further.

At the rate things are going...Tinubu will collapse his structure, into a Peter Obi..or Atiku Political movement.

This is a FACT that stares you guyz in the face constantly...But the disgrace is what you are afraid of.

This race is between ATIKU and Peter Obi....all that Southern Nonsense rants , was because you guyz NEVER saw Peter Obi coming.

But understand this and know peace...Thiefnubuu can NEVER be President...He is just too toxic and useless.

Day dreamer I barely hear anyone decamping to LP . Back in 2019 Atiku made noise online And lost guess the people who are making the noise ? ( obedient supporters) that’s why PDP is not making waves online Today . If PDP and LP don’t merge both parties will likely loose to APC .
You guys don’t face reality that’s why everything seem like rigging to you .

Atiku beat BUHARI "blue-black"....BUHARI used his power of incumbency to retain his seat and presidency.

For me Personally...i want Nigeria to Break, so that everybody will go "solo"

So stop comparing, events of yesterday with what is obtainable now.

APC's last "tsunami movement" was BUHARI. Tinubu doesn't have that "clout", even in his SW...he cant sweep the votes convincingly.

So wake up.
