Senator Adamu Aliero ( Kebbi Central) on Thursday formally announced his defection from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to Peoples Democratic party (PDP).

PlatinumPost reports that Senate leader, Yahaya Abdullahi, had also on Tuesday abandoned the ruling party for PDP, citing injustices in primaries.

Declaring his defection in Birnin Kebbi, Aliero, a former governor and ex-FCT minister, said his decision was informed by his effort to fulfil the desire of his teeming supporters spread across the state.

“I, Muhammadu Adamu Aliero, people of my constituency, that is Kebbi Central and my teeming supporters from across Kebbi state have resolved to defect from APC to PDP due to the injustices we endured in our former party, APC,” he said. “Those in support of my political ideology were deceived and treated unjustly, hence the need for us to leave the party for another political party where we feel we shall be accommodated and treated justly.”

According to him, before arriving at a conclusion of leaving the party, he made several efforts to resolve the issue including complaining to the national headquarters of the party but nothing positive came out of it.

He appealed to all his supporters in Kebbi Central senatorial district as well as other loyalists across the state to vote for PDP to ensure its victory at all levels.
