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.
