PDP Lawmaker Defects to APC Citing Internal Crisis in Kebbi State
Aliero Gwandu Jega, a lawmaker representing Kebbi State, has defected from the People's Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) citing internal crisis within the PDP. The defection was announced on the floor of the House of Representatives by Speaker Tajudeen Abba.
Jega's decision to defect was influenced by the deep internal divisions within the PDP, with the APC offering a more disciplined and development-focused platform. This defection is part of a series of defections from the PDP amidst internal turmoil and factional alignments involving figures like Nyesom Wike and Tanimu Turaki.
