12 Sokoto Lawmakers Abandon Tambuwal, Declare Support For Buhari by abc115(op): 5:27pm On Aug 01, 2018
Twelve of the 30-member Sokoto State House of Assembly have declared their loyalty to the All Progressives Congress and President Muhammadu Buhari.

The lawmakers stated this in a statement sent to PREMIUM TIMES Wednesday afternoon.

“We reiterate our commitment and loyalty to the APC led government under President Muhammadu Buhari,” they said in the statement.

Their announcement follows the decision of the Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal, to defect to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from the APC.

It's of no doubt that so many politicians that defected to PDP will be disappointed in 2019.

Mark my words!

Meanwhile they should enjoy their own decision on the opposition side of the divide but of course they remain in the minority.Politics is a dirty game anyway.
Meanwhile they should not try the lawlessness as attempted in Benue.

They may just be fooling PMB.

The President is hard to sell to anyone these days.

It is just so hard to point to his achievements in 3 years plus.

Power may have improved but it is just a bit.

No new roads, no new hospitals. Infact, nothing new. That is in spite of their lofty promises.

Anything that can send Bubu and APC out is a welcome development.

Tambuwal has lost control of the part structure, hence his defection. It has nothing to do with him running for president, he knows it's DOA. Nigga just want a platform to run for second term, that's all.

PMB will still win 2019, this crop of PDP guys are just the same old "chop one, I chop one" politicians.

One Nigga said he defected cos the "juice" suddenly ran dry cheesy cheesy

Nonsense news! All of them plus Ngeneukwuenu and this idiat above me are all useless.

Eighteen are still in support of Tambuwal, so what's the fuss about?

Re: 12 Sokoto Lawmakers Abandon Tambuwal, Declare Support For Buhari by luvmijeje(f): 5:33pm On Aug 01, 2018
They are still in minority.
Re: 12 Sokoto Lawmakers Abandon Tambuwal, Declare Support For Buhari by fiercehillz(m):
If only these APC and PDP rascals are decamping because of bad roads, poor infrastructures, poor health care, poverty indices, insecurity and negligence of the masses...its just too sad that they are decamping because of their own selfish interest (juicy appointment comes to mind). This is now a ritual that must be carried out every four years.
Nigeria won't move forward until politics becomes less attractive in terms of monetary gains. As we are trying to help our country individually and collectively, please if you have the opportunity to pursue greener pastures elsewhere, please don't hold back except it is not genuine. God bless Nigeria

Atiku, though i feel you are corrupt (without prove though), you have a wider coverage than Makarfi and you are financially buoyant.

Markarfi, though you got no wide coverage and finance like Atiku, you got less bad blood in the polity.

Dankwanbo, you are the best among them; Liberal, smart, and young but you got no wide coverage to come against the tyrant.

I would love Makarfi to have it but i think Atiku is the best shot against Buhari.

HOWEVER, EVEN IF BUHARI CROSSES OVER 2019, LORD GOD, MY PRAYER IS THAT THE TYRANT AND BIGOT SITTING IN SIR KASHIM IBRAHIM HOUSE IN KADUNA SHOULD NOT RETURN PLS.

I expect Uche Secondus to harmonise a plan in favour of decampee, old and new members.

Don't count your eggs yet! Don't repeat the same mistakes APC made!

PDP has vast experience. It's time to put it to display
