Northern Lawmaker Dumps PDP for APC Amid Growing Factional Tensions
Prominent Northern lawmaker Mansur Musa has defected from the People's Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) citing internal conflicts and a lack of strong leadership within the PDP. His decision, announced during a plenary session, reflects growing factional tensions within the opposition party.
The move comes amidst a wave of high-profile departures from the PDP, including the resignation of the party's public secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan. Musa's defection is seen as a blow to the PDP's efforts to maintain unity and stability ahead of the 2023 elections, further weakening the party's position.
