In what appears as huge gain for the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) in Kogi State happened in Kabba/Bunu local government on Sunday when two of the stalwarts of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr Alfred Dare Alaska and Mr. Amupitan in olle/oke-offin ward defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), in the state along with hundreds of their supporters ahead of November 16 governorship election.
The former members of the APC, said the defection was due to the poor roads network, unpaid salaries, insecurity and insensitivity on the plight of the people by the government.
According to Mr Alfred Dare, he said “Governor Yahaya Bello’s government is the worst government in the history of kogi state.”
“The APC government in kogi state is not fair to my people and we can no longer remain in such party”
“So, that compelled me to move out from the party with my supporters”. he said.
The defectors were received into the party by Hon Alfred Bello PDP state treasurer and Hon JJ Abejirin kabba/ Bunu party chairman
Speaking, the local government chairman of the PDP, Hon JJ Abejirin, expressed satisfaction over the defection.
The defectors were assured that they would be carried along in the scheme of things, and that they are important to the PDP at this moment of campaigns
