1,331 APC Party Members From Ganduje’s Ward Decamp to NNPP in Kano

 

The All Progressives Congress, APC has lost 1,331 members in Kano state.

 

DailyPost reported that the members decamped to the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP from the APC.

 

The defectors are mainly from 11 wards of Abdullahi Ganduje’s Dawakin-Tofa local government area of the state and vowed to work against the return of APC in Kano.

 

Prominent among the former APC leaders who have now embraced the NNPP are former Vice Chairman, Dawakin-Tofa local government area, Malam Isyaku Dahiru Kwa; former state assembly aspirant, Audu Magaji Tumfafi; Bashir Musa Sani, APC Youth Leader for Takai Organization among others.

 

Receiving the defectors to the ruling party, at a reception in Dawakin-Tofa, the state Chairman of NNPP, Hashimu Dungurawa, hailed Ganduje’s kinsmen for moving to the NNPP.

 

One of the decampees, Isyaku Dahiru kwa, had alleged total neglect by Ganduje and his inability to develop the Dawakin-Tofa local government area during his eight-year tenure as a major reason for their decision.

 

He said the NNPP under the leadership of Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso is committed to entrenching socio-economic and infrastructural development in Kano and the country at large.

 

While assuring the newest members of the NNPP of equal opportunity within the party caucus, Dungurawa dispelled rumours of mass defection of NNPP members to APC.

 

He maintained that the NNPP is not losing grip of its party structure across the political wards, describing those aligning with APC as 419s struggling to collect their national cake from their recruiters.

 

 

He advised the Abuja APC man to shine his eye and beware of 419 people coming to collect the public fund at his disposal in the name of decamping, saying they would not blame anyone claiming to have decamped from NNPP to APC simply to collect his own share from the disposable income.
