Of the 30 honorable members that make up the Sokoto State House of
Assembly, 27 of them who came into the house through the PDP flag
today renounced their membership of the ruling party and defected to All
Progressive Party (APC) which happens to be the state Governor, Aliyu
Wammako's party. Governor Wammako in October 2013 defected with four
other serving PDP Governors to the APC. The people that defected include
Speaker of the Assembly and other principal officers
The lawmakers said they defected because they have been under immense pressure to defect
to the APC by members of their constituency since their governor ditched the PDP for APC.
Speaking to Premium Times, the lawmakers said:
"We are moving in line with the decision of his excellency Gov Wammako
to also move over to the APC. The PDP umbrella is torn and we have to
follow the wishes of our people"
