Former Governor of Kano State and Senator representing Kano Central Senatorial district, Ibrahim Shekarau on Wednesday dumped the APC and defected to the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).
Shekarau’s defection was announced during plenary by the Senate President, Dr Ahmad Ibrahim Lawan, after the upper legislative Chamber resumed from a two hour closed door meeting on Wednesday.
In his letter of resignation from All Progressives Congress, the ruling party, he cited injustice and unfairness by Kano State Governor, Alhaji Abdullahi Umar Ganduje as reasons for his leaving.
