In Bauchi State, 5,000 APC women have also defected to the PDP. While expressing their loyalty at PDP Secretariat in Birnin Kebbi, the state capital yesterday, Aliyu and Kabi said, they left the APC because of maltreatment and the state government’s failure to execute meaningful projects in the state.

“Government has promised to offer us positions during the last concluded primaries but, ended up with nothing,” he added. They noted that there is no way APC will win the forthcoming 2023 general election in the state as its members have lost confidence in the party.

The PDP chairman, Alhaji Bello Suru, who was represented by the state secretary, Alhaji Bawa Kalgo, welcomed them into the party and assured them equal treatment, especially when it forms the government in 2023.

He also assured them that the party would change its leadership style when it assumes office. The defectors were received alongside with stakeholders of PDP, Alhaji Abba Aliero, Alhaji Abubakar Atiku Bunu Jega, Alhaji Garba Maidoki Zuru, Alhaji Sani Dododo among others.

In a chat with LEADERSHIP, the leader of the defectors, Fatima Mohammed, said their resolve to join the PDP was due to the failure of the APC-led federal government to fulfil its campaign promises of lifting Nigerians out of poverty and hunger among others.
