Kwankwaso says 2 More PDP Governors set to Decamp to APC

The PDP has been winning with regards defection of Governor and former Governor in recent times, but it seems the tide is set to turn in favour of the leading opposition party, OluFamous.Com gathered.

According to NAN, Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano State said on Monday that two governors of the PDP would soon defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC). Kwankwaso said this when he paid a courtesy visit on his Kwara counterpart, Abdulfatah Ahmed.

Kwankwaso was in Ilorin as part of his consultations for the presidential ticket of the APC for 2015:

“Our economy can never be good in a situation of crisis; our economy can never be good in the face of corruption,” Kwankwaso said.

He described APC members as practical people with extensive grassroots reach to tackle corruption and other national malaise.

He said that in line with the constitution, the APC would explore the possibility of consensus presidential candidate within the ambit of democratic culture. He commended the Kwara Government for initiating poverty alleviation and employment generation programmes to reduce youth unemployment and restiveness.

Governor Ahmed assured that the choice of the APC presidential candidate for 2015 general elections would be devoid of acrimony and strengthen the party.
