Senate Leader Yahaya Abdullahi Dumps APC For PDP

 

Senate leader and lawmaker from Kebbi state, Senator Yahaya Abdullahi has defected from the ruling All progressives Congress APC to the opposition, Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

 

This was confirmed by his special adviser on media and publicity Muhammad Jamil Gulma. Vanguard reported that he said;

 

“Senate Leader Dr Yahaya Abdullahi will on Wednesday by 9 am leave Abuja for Kebbi and proceed to Kamba local government to formally declare for PDP and to possibly indicate his interest to contest his present seat.”

 

Yahaya who had earlier participated in the APC’s Kebbi governorship primaries was reported to have scored Zero vote, an outcome which he had since rejected and described as shambolic and a child’s play.
