More than 2,000 members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Danko-Wasagu Local Government Area of Kebbi State have defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
The defectors were formally received by the APC Chairman in Kebbi State, Abubakar Kana-Zuru, in Birnin Kebbi on Tuesday, December 2, 2025.
Speaking on behalf of the defectors, the former PDP House of Assembly candidate, Arzika Lawal, said their decision was driven by Governor Nasir Idris’ giant strides in securing the state.

Lawal commended the governor for facilitating the release of the students abducted from the Government Girls’ Comprehensive Secondary School, Maga, describing his intervention as swift and compassionate.
Receiving the defectors, Kana-Zuru assured them of equal treatment in the APC.
