The All Progressives Congress (APC), suffered a major setback in Bauchi State on Saturday as Hon. Aminu Mohammed Danmaliki, a former Commissioner, federal lawmaker and prominent party chieftain, resigned and joined the People’s Redemption Party (PRP).
Danmaliki announced his defection at Majidadi B Ward in Bauchi during a gathering of PRP leaders, elders, women, youths, among other stakeholders.
“Today is not simply about changing political parties. It is about choosing principles over convenience, conviction over comfort, and the people over power,” he said.
The former member of the House of Representatives said the decision followed careful reflection, sincere consultation, and prayerful consideration.
He added that he was leaving the APC without bitterness or malice, but out of concern for the hardship facing ordinary Nigerians.
