EKO HOT BLOG reports that Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, the governor of Sokoto State, has welcomed Hon. Dahiru Maishanu Yabo into the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). Yabo previously belonged to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In a statement released on Friday, Muhammad Bello, Governor Tambuwal’s special adviser for media and publicity, revealed this.
According to the statement, Yabo, a former Commissioner for Information, as well as Solid Minerals in the State, was received by the Governor, his Deputy, Manir Muhammmad Dan Iya, as well as the State PDP Chairman, Alhaji Bello Muhammad among other government officials at Government House, Sokoto on Thursday.
The new entrant, while giving reasons for his defection, claimed that his former party lacked internal democracy and was full of favoritism and bootlicking.
The APC in Sokoto has formed a cabal of which you must be a member in order to have anything to do with the party or to be involved in the progress of the nation or the State”, Yabo said.
