JUST IN: Niger PDP Deputy Chairman Defects To APC

Deputy Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Niger State, Aminu Yusuf, has dumped the party for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Reacting to Yusuf’s defection, the Niger PDP said in a statement on Friday that it was yet to receive the Deputy Chairman’s notice of defection.

The party equally announced Yusuf’s suspended over allegations bothering on anti-party activities.

The Niger PDP also accused Yusuf of “engaging in conducts unbecoming of a party executive.”
