Breaking: Katsina Reps Swap Parties Over PDP Turmoil!
Three representatives from Katsina shift political allegiance, joining the All Progressives Congress (APC) from the People's Democratic Party (PDP)
In a shocking development, three representatives from Katsina State, feeling the heat of internal PDP disputes, have made the leap to the All Progressives Congress (APC)!
Here are the three gentlemen joining the APC bandwagon:
- Hon. Salisu Yusuf Majigiri, rocking the Mashi/Dutsi federal constituency seat,
- Hon. Aliyu Iliyasu Ruma, repping the Batsari, Safana, and Danmusa federal constituency,
- and Hon. Abdullahi Balarabe Dabai, strutting his stuff for the Bakori/Danja federal constituency.
The announcement came during the House's plenary session, led by Speaker Tajudeen Abbas.
Meanwhile, stirring up some drama in Abia State, Governor Alex Otti went hard on the factional National Chairman of the Labour Party (LP), Julius Abure. Otti's beef with Abure stems from allegations of impersonation and a dubious "suspension". No joke—this guy, Abure, according to Otti, is just a jester on a disastrous quest for a crown!
Ignoring the so-called suspension by Abure's crew, Otti insists these clowns are nothing more than representatives of a self-serving economic agenda. Otti advises the public to disregard the "suspension" and view Abure and his accomplices as clueless jesters desperately seeking a crown they neither deserve nor possess.

- Speaker Tajudeen Abbas led the House's plenary session during the announcement of these defections.
- In a separate development, Governor Alex Otti of Abia State has openly criticized the factional National Chairman of the Labour Party (LP), Julius Abure, over allegations of impersonation and a dubious "suspension".
