3 Katsina PDP lawmakers defect to APC amid political realignment

In a significant political development, three members of the House of Representatives from Katsina State have defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

This move underscores a broader trend of political realignments within the state.

The defectors include Hamza Dalhatu (Rimi/Charanci/Batagarawa constituency), Salisu Iro (Katsina constituency), and Ahmad Dayyabu (Danmusa/Batsari/Safana constituency).

Their decision to switch allegiance comes amid ongoing discussions among PDP stalwarts in Katsina to form a coalition aimed at challenging the APC in the 2027 elections.

The defections have sparked reactions from various political stakeholders.

While the APC has welcomed the new members, the PDP has expressed concerns over the implications of these defections on the party’s strength and unity in the region.

This development is part of a larger pattern of political shifts in Katsina State.

Earlier this year, over 40,000 members from various opposition parties, including the PDP, defected to the APC, citing internal conflicts and a desire for more effective governance.

As the 2027 elections approach, these realignments are expected to play a crucial role in shaping the political landscape of Katsina State.

Observers will be closely monitoring how these changes influence party dynamics and voter sentiments in the coming years.
