Aminu Tambuwal has officially dumped the All Progressives’ Congress (APC) for the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) on Wednesday, August 1, 2018.
The governor announced his defection to hundreds of supporters at the Sokoto Government House on Wednesday.
He said that the APC has reached historically unprecedented heights of impunity in all manner of vices and brazenly turned itself into a sanctuary for the corrupt and a machine for rigging and for the rape of democracy.
He further complained that Sokoto State is not being meaningfully carried along in political appointments and in other matters of national importance.
He said his decision was based on his refusal to be part of the “frightful conspiracy against the cohesion of the Nigerian State”.
