Nigerian Lawmaker Abdulmumin Jibrin Defects to APC Amid Growing Political Realignment

Kano Representative Abdulmumin Jibrin Kofa has announced his defection to the APC after being expelled from NNPP, expressing support for Bola Tinubu's potential 2027 re-election bid. This move follows the defection of six lawmakers from Enugu to the APC, including Abba Tajudeen, Daniel Ago, Chidi Obetta, and others, who cited irreconcilable differences and internal divisions within their former parties as reasons for switching sides.

The political landscape in Nigeria is witnessing significant shifts as defections continue to shape the country's political dynamics.
