While explaining the reason for his carpet crossing, Wakkala said since the APC lost in 2019 elections, he has been considered irrelevant as a result of not being consulted for any party activity in the state.

He noted that since the inception of the current administration of Governor Bello Matawalle, he has been playing an advisory role, especially in addressing the security challenges facing the state.

He also noted that he has formally sent a written notice to inform his former principal Abdulaziz Yari on his decision to leave the APC.
