BREAKING: Saraki, Governor Ahmed Dump APC For PDP

The Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has formally announced his departure from Nigeria’s ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The Kwara State Governor, Abdulfatah Ahmed, made a similar announcement at about the same time.

Mr Saraki made his announcement on his official social media handles.

“I wish to inform Nigerians that, after extensive consultations, I have decided to take my leave of the All Progressives Congress (APC),” he wrote on his Twitter handle.

Nigerians have largely expected Mr. Saraki’s defection from especially after all the federal lawmakers from his Kwara State left the APC last week.

The Senate President is expected to join the main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
