Defections Hit APC
Share on WhatsAppShare on FacebookShare on XTelegram

Mass defections have rocked the major political parties in Gombe State, as 1,083 members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Lawanti town of Akko local government area of Gombe State left for the Social Democratic Party (SDP).

The new decampees were said to have been inspired by a renowned politician in the area, Honourable Usman Barade El-Lawanti, who recently also joined the SDP.

Speaking during a grand event to publicly announce their defection to SDP, the decampees described El-Lawanti as “a humanitarian, grassroots leader, and true community builder.”

They expressed frustration with the APC’s “bad governance” and accused the PDP of “lack of direction,” declaring the SDP as the credible alternative for the people.

The new members were officially received by the state SDP chairman, Comrade Adamu Abubakar Modibbo, who, alongside other party executives and stakeholders, assured them of inclusive leadership, fairness, and equal opportunities.
