Kano Lawmakers Defect from NNPP to APC

Eight lawmakers from the Nigeria===New Nigeria People s Party (NNPP) in Nigeria===Kano State defected to the Nigeria===All Progressives Congress (APC) at the National Assembly in Abuja. This move, witnessed by Nigeria===Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, was attributed to internal crises within the NNPP. The governor acknowledged the defections as a normal part of the democratic process and emphasized the importance of unity for Nigeria===Kano State's development. This event was part of a larger trend where 30 members of the House of Representatives defected from various parties, including the Nigeria===People s Democratic Party, citing internal party issues. Notable defections included Philip Agbese from APC to Labour Party and Ikenga Ugochinyere from PDP to Nigeria===All Progressives Congress.
