A former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, has dumped the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Dogara was received into the party on Monday during the party’s presidential campaign in Lagos.
This comes barely 48 hours after Dogara and some aggrieved northern APC leaders declared support for the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
Atiku was happy to receive Dogara at the nation’s commercial capital. In 2020, Dogara dumped the PDP to join the APC.
The development back then was announced to State House correspondents by the chairman of the APC Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Committee, Mai Mala Buni, who said the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), was happy seeing Dogara return to the party.
Dogara, alongside former President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki, and some governors had left the APC for the PDP ahead of the 2019 general election.
