How PDP loses big to NNPP in Kano

A faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kano led by one Shehu Sagagi has rejoined the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP about one year after they left the party.

 

 

Sagagi said he left the PDP due to lack of internal democracy and nepotism by its national leadership of the party and his belief that the NNPP presidential candidate, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso will win the February 25 presidential election.

 

 

He also claimed that he defected to NNPP alongside 36 state executive members, over 700 local government executives, 8,000 ward executives, 44 national delegates and 1,452 ward delegates of PDP.

 

 

“Politics is a game of numbers, we are optimistic that the NNPP Presidential Candidate, Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso will take us to victory at both national and state level.

 

 

“The PDP sabotaged itself in states like Kano by allowing the likes of Sen. Kwankwaso to defect in spite of his massive followership not only in the state but the nation at large.

 

 

“To us this is a home coming, we are real politicians and we have joined a political party that plays real politics.

 

 

“I am happy to rejoin Sen. Kwankwaso once again a year after our departure,” Sunusi Dawakin Tofa, Spokesman of the NNPP Campaign Council, on Sunday in Kano quoted Sagagi as saying in the statement.

 

 

The statement said the decampees were received into the fold of the NNPP by its National Chairman, Prof. Rufa’i Alkali and the party’s presidential candidate running mate, Isaac Idahosa, at a ceremony held in Kano.

 

 

The statement also quoted Alkali as congratulating the decampees for the wise decision to join the NNPP.

 

 

It further quoted Idahosa as saying that the NNPP with its massive support and historic defection would emerged victorious at the polls. CONTINUE READING…………………………
