ZAMFARA (Sundiata Post) – A Former member of the House of Representatives, Kabiru Classic has defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressive Congress (APC).

Kabiru announced his defection on Thursday, after meeting with the state APC Chairman Alhaji Tukur Danfulani and Chairman Senator Abdul’aziz Yari Political Organization, Alhaji Lawal M Liman as well as other Zamfara APC stakeholders in Kaduna.

Alhaji Kabiru Yahayya Classic represented Anka/Talata Mafara Federal Constituency in the 9th Assembly between 2019 and 2023 under the umbrella of the PDP.

Classic defected along with the PDP structure in Talata Mafara Local Government Area, including the LG PDP Chairman and All 10 out of 11 PDP Ward Chairmen in Talata Mafara LGA.

The former lawmaker said that he defected from the PDP because there was no justice and fairness in the Zamfara PDP chapter.

“I Kabiru Yahayya Classic, Today, Thursday, Nov. 7, 2024, wish to announce my defection from the PDP to the progressive party, the APC.

“I am defecting with All PDP structures in Talata Mafara Local Government Area including the Local Government EXCO of the PDP and the 10 out of 11 Ward Chairmen of the PDP.

Receiving the Lawmaker, the State APC Chairman, Tukur Umar Danfulani described Classic defection as a welcome development for the APC.

“We are happy to receive our brother in our great party, this is a great development.

“More defectors from the PDP-led Government in Zamfara are ready to join the APC very soon

“We assured the Classic and all the defectors of fair treatment in APC, adding that the APC has a great structure with good internal democracy”, Danfulani explained.

Also speaking, the Chairman, Sen Yari’s Political Organization, Alhaji Lawal M Liman commended Kabiru Classic and other defectors for joining the progressive team.

Liman described the APC as the only party with a manifesto to move Zamfara and Nigeria forward.

The defection is coming barely a week after a Federal Lawmaker representing Gummi/Bukkuyum Federal Constituency, Suleiman Gummi announced his defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC) from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
