Sokoto: More PDP Members Defect To APC

Speaking at the event, the Minister of Police Affairs, Maigari Dingyadi said this is anotjer success for the APC.

“The APC administration under the watch of President Muhammadu Buhari has brought positive developmental projects aimed at impacting the lives of people.

“The government had for the past seven and half years continued to roll out sustainable programmes that impacted positively to the lives of the less privileged in the country.

“Therefore, I call on all of you to sustain more support for the victory of APC in order for the party to continue to provide more democratic dividends for our people,” he urged.

Dingyadi further said that those achievements recorded by the government at the center were the reasons why members of other political parties were trooping into the APC across the board.

Sadiq-Achida urged the new members to feel free and work for the success of the party in the forthcoming elections in the state.
