Ahead of the 2023 general elections, no fewer than 16 All Progressives Congress (APC) ward executives on Friday defected to the People Democratic Party (PDP) in Sokoto State.

Speaking while receiving the new members, the state PDP chairman, Alhaji Bello Goronyo, assured them of equal treatment with all other members of the party.

“In the PDP we treat all our members the same, we always stand on our name for the people, as such I assure you that we will work together for the best future of our state and Nigeria.

“Your decision to join us in this journey is of great concern to us as leaders and I am optimistic that with you on board we will succeed in our struggle,” he said.
A statement signed by the party’s publicity secretary, Hassan Sahabi Sayinnawal, said the chairman further called on them to continue to educate the general public on the legacy projects and initiatives of Governor Aminu Tambuwal’s administration in the state.

In his remarks on behalf of the new members, Alhaji Garba Dan-Sanda said their decision to join the PDP was based on the track record they identified in the Aminu Tambuwal-led government of the state.
