Kaduna Governor Present As 3 PDP Lawmakers Defect To APC In House Of Reps

Three members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the House of Representatives from Kaduna State have formally defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

They were Hon. Abdulkarim Ahmed, representing Kaduna South constituency; Aliyu Abdullahi, representing Ikara/Kubau constituency and Sadiq Abdullahi, representing Sabon Gari federal constituency, all of Kaduna State.

Their defections were announced in separate letters read by Speaker Abbas Tajudeen at resumed plenary on Tuesday.
