The All Progressives Congress, APC, Women Leader in Kibiya Local Government Area, Hajiya Sabuwa Tarai, on Tuesday, led more than 100 party members from Tarai to defect to the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP.

According to a statement released on Wednesday by the Director of Public Enlightenment at the Kano Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Balarabe Kiru, the defectors were received into the NNPP by the state’s Commissioner for Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Alhaji Adamu A. Kibiya.

Kiru stated that the group, led by Tarai, attributed their defection to the numerous development projects and initiatives implemented by Governor Yusuf’s administration.

“We are impressed by the numerous projects executed by Gov. Yusuf at the local government and state level,” Tarai said.

The commissioner welcomed the new members to the NNPP family, assuring them of equal treatment and urging them to unite and contribute to the party’s growth.
