Aminu Achida (APC, Wurno) has emerged House of Assembly speaker in the PDP-led Sokoto State. Achida also defeated the anointed candidate of his party, Abdullahi Garba Sidi, representing Gwadabawa South Constituency.

Daily Trust learnt that the new speaker was backed by the ruling PDP in the state. The Sokoto Assembly has 16 APC members and 14 PDP members. Achida, who was nominated by Ibrahim Sarki (PDP, Sokoto North II), won by three votes having scored 16 of the 30 votes cast in the election that was conducted secretly under tight security.

Sidi secured 13 votes and one vote was declared invalid. For Deputy Speaker, Abubakar Magaji (PDP, Bodinga, North) who held the position during the 8th Assembly, was re-elected. Magaji, who was nominated by Malami Muhammad (PDP, Sokoto South II) secured 17 votes to defeat Alhaji Isa Harisu (APC, Kebbi) who had 12 votes. One vote was declared invalid.

There were rumours earlier that three of the APC lawmakers had been compromised by the ruling PDP in the state which has Aminu Tambuwal as governor. One of the APC leaders told Daily Trust on the eve of the inauguration that they suspected the members representing Wamakko and Wurno had been lured by the ruling PDP ahead of the election. Journalists were barred from covering the inauguration and the election by the management of the House. Also affected by this decision were the leaders of the two parties who stormed the legislative house with their supporters, a situation that almost degenerated into chaos but for the quick intervention of the police who fired several tear gas canisters to disperse them.

Meanwhile, Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal in his congratulatory message to the House described the emergence of the two officers as a triumph for compromise and unity of purpose which he described as the mark of genuine democracy. In the message signed by his Director General, Media and Public Affairs, Abubakar Shekara, the governor said he was particularly pleased by the peaceful proceedings during the inaugural session. This, he added, was an indication of the character of the House for the coming four years. Similarly, APC leaders in Sokoto said they were happy their party was in control of the legislative arm of government, saying it was an indication that the party was the choice of the people of the state.

sokoto us gone siince

nyamiris re politically naive Sokoto is an Apc state , wammako Apc chieftain was the reason why Tambuwal escaped by less than 300 votes to win re-election bid.
Apc dominates everything except the gov seat .

Apc has 3 senators in Sokoto pdp none

Apc has 9 house of reps in Sokoto pdp has 2 reps

Apc has 16 state lwamakers pdp has 14.

It will be easier for Tambuwal to return back to Apc than apc member joining pdp.
Come 2023 Apc will retain Sokoto Bauchi and zamfara

blablabla. Pdp last governor in Sokoto is Tambuwal. He was lucky to escape with 300 votes due to wammako Apc chieftain sympathy for him as his political son . No pdp candidate in 2023 can defeat Apc

PDP is a liberal party

He will either decamp sooner or later or get impeached in no distant future. PDP will eventually have the majority later on.

If this had happened in an APC state, the shameless Igbos pigs and children of hate will invade the thread and beat their flat chests as usual.

Until the igbos ressuciate themselves and wall themselves round with the fear of God only then will the blessings of God come true in there lives.

Hate will kill them.

Ok

In the north, its really not about the party, its the person

To be honest, am really indifferent about who dominates more or less. It's more about the persons and what they bring to the table. That's how politics should be. The persons that represents the larger interest, the peoples interest not a just some peoples interest.

but the high level of poverty remain the same .... until we start discussing important issue than APC and PDP like a football game... nothing will change

And you still think the speaker is in APC?

The earlier he defects, the better for APC. Because he would be entitled to attend APC meetings and foil their plans.

You are in sifia pain.

You know the antecedent of your evil party. For Tambuwal to escape with 300 votes means they want PDP to control Sokoto.

Can't you make a contribution without name calling? Your post would have been worth digesting, but you started on a rather wrong side.

It's easier for Tambuwal and other HOA members to decamp to APC than the other way round.

Argue with your brain.
