Deputy Minority Whip of the Senate, Ibrahim Danbaba, has decamped from the opposition Peoples’ Democratic Party, PDP, to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
The lawmaker’s decision to join to the APC was conveyed in a letter read at the start of plenary by the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, on Wednesday.
Mr Danbaba, who represents Sokoto South in the upper chamber of the National Assembly, was nominated by the PDP on July 15, 2022, for the position of Deputy Minority Whip, following the defection of the former Deputy Whip, Sahabi Alhaji Ya’u, representing Zamfara North from the PDP to the APC.
Mr Danbaba’s defection brings the total number of APC Senators in the upper chamber to 71, and PDP 37.
