An associate of former vice
president, Atiku Abubakar, Mallam Isah Dansallah and a former speaker of the
Taraba state House of Assembly, Simon Dogari, have defected from the ruling All
Progressive Congress (APC) to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
In Kaduna, Dansallah, who is a
founding member of the APC attributed his defection to what he called lack of
good governance by the ruling party.
He told the Leadership newspaper
that the party had failed the Nigerian people.
“I dump the APC to PDP because
the opposition PDP is lesser evil compare with the ruling APC," he said.
“There was a time that I found
myself in the APC, I worked for it success in 2015, but the APC has
metamorphose and turn into a ghost with crisis all over.
“The APC led government has
succeeded in subjecting Nigerians to abject poverty and has successfully
divided Nigerians along religious and ethnic lines.
“People are dying every day with
various sickness because of depression as some people can’t even afford a
square meal a day."
Meanwhile, in Taraba state, a
former speaker of the state house of Assembly and other chieftains of the APC
on Sunday, October 15, defected to the PDP.
Dogari who defected with about
3000 supporters, told PDP party members at the party’s secretariat in Jalingo
that the APC lacked focus, the Punch reports.
He said: “We have seen the sense
of direction and commitment for progress by the PDP and decided to join the
party to enable us contribute our quota for the development of the state."
