The Labour Party suffered a setback on Friday as its governorship candidate in Jigawa State, Abdulahi Tsoho defected to the All Progressive Congress.
His decision came ahead of the party’s rally where its presidential candidate Bola Tinubu, is expected to campaign this weekend.
This was made known by Habibu Nuhu Kila, the Special Adviser to Governor Muhammad Badaru of Jigawa State, in a statement which the NPO Reports obtained.
According to the statement, Comrade Abdullahi said he realized that APC has all the qualities for championing the yearnings and aspirations of the Nigerian people.
Seen to be a minus for the party and it’s presidential candidate Peter Obi, the Labour Party has not issued any statement on the development.
