Wammako Predicts Doom for APC Defectors in Sokoto

NAN/

Sen. Aliyu Wamakko (APC Sokoto) who staged a grand homecoming to Sokoto today said defectors to Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and other political parties from All Progressives Congress (APC) would surely regret their actions.

Wamakko spoke at a special rally in support of President Muhammadu Buhari and APC organised by loyalists, in the wake of the defection of Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal to PDP from the ruling APC on August 1.

He described PDP as a dead political party and categorically ruled out Tambuwal’s exit being a threat to APC hold on the state.

He said the Sokoto APC still had two Senators, seven members of the Federal House of Representatives and 12 state assembly members, besides the high percentage of political elders, youths, women and others in the state.

He conveyed President Buhari’s goodwill message to Sokoto residents.

He debunked Tambuwal’s statement that the Federal Government has not executed any project in Sokoto.

Wammako added that many projects had been executed and many had been proposed across the state.

He thanked Sokoto people for the warm reception as well as huge support for President Buhari’s administration.
