A businessman in Kebbi, Alhaji Mustapha Asaija and five thousand
other members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at the weekend left
the party to join the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The PDP gubernatorial candidate, Senator Isa Galaudu, his running
mate, Alhaji Abubakar Malan, PDP state executives and hundreds of PDP
members received the businessman with his supporters at Ambursa in
Birnin Kebbi local government area of the state.
Asaija said he left the ruling APC with his supporters to join the
PDP because the party has failed in making the lives of Nigerians better
in spite of its numerous promises.
He said “I did not decamp with my supporters to get money I swear, I left the APC simply because things are not just right”.
He said he would mobilise more people in the area for the success of
PDP gubernatorial candidate Isa Galaudu in the 2019 election.
In his remark the PDP gubernatorial candidate, Galaudu said he was
happy to receive the ‘decampees’ while calling for peaceful
electioneering campaign devoid of hate speech and violence.
He said “If elected, I promise to address issues of youth
unemployment, improve civil service, maintain regular payment of pension
and gratuity and come up with genuine agricultural program in Kebbi
with adequate loan subsidy to farmers”.
At another development, the PDP has inaugurated its Campaign
Committee and Alhaji Isah Mungadi was appointed Director General of the
party campaign in Kebbi State.
