Just In: Senator Doguwa Switches Allegiance From APC To PDP

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano, Senator Masaud Doguwa, has dumped the party and pitched his tent with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Doguwa, in a personally signed statement about his defection, said despite his vast experience, the APC has made him idle and redundant.

He added that the APC is sponsoring anti-people policies which are causing harm to ordinary Nigerians.

“In politics, if you fail to engage highly experienced politicians by providing them with political assignments, you are making them politically redundant, and giving them room to struggle and engage themselves elsewhere.

“This is because highly experienced politicians don’t want to stay idle,’’ the statement said.

The politician added that after a careful evaluation of the party’s activities, and approach to issues, he can no longer remain with the APC, hence his decision to defect to another party.

“After careful appraisal, I have discovered that some of the policies are anti-people-oriented and do not align with our political ideology.

“These policies are causing more harm and concern than good to the ordinary and common citizens of the country.

“From what we have seen happening in APC, we have not seen light in the tunnel where an ordinary man, big or small, will sigh a relief from the burden of life with the APC approach on issues,” he added.
