Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara State has formally announced his defection to the All Progressive Congress (APC).
Speaking at a rally on Tuesday in Gusau, Matawalle asserted that he long had the ambition of leaving his party PDP for several reasons.
He said: “I am now the leader of APC in Zamfara state and I am ready to work with each and everyone wishing to contribute to the rapid development of the state. I also want to bring to your notice that as from today, the APC Caretaker committees of Zamfara state from the ward to the state level have been dissolved”.
Nigerians accused him of being a political prostitute by switching sides to suit his selfish interest and not the interest of the state he governs.
Below are some reactions from Nigerians
Comr Wale Olamide: “Do they even care about their electorates? How can the governor be making such a move when his state is bleeding with the highest level of insecurity? They just don’t care about us.
Jephthah Ikedi: “Governor doesn’t vote themselves to power, the people do. With the level of insecurity in Nigeria APC becomes invalid to Nigerians”.
Comr Abdulkadiri Dantsoho: “What’s wrong with Nigerian Leaders? APC spend 6 years in power with nothing to show and now some of our governors are decamping to the ruling party for them to rig the 2023 Election mtsw!”.
Malam Mukhtar: “Power drunkard! It’s not new, something that comes surprising because it’s a normal and tradition for electees to jump into different homes they wished.
“Most people who are joining the APC party were power drunkards and political prostitutes that just wanted to live in enjoyment and power for long periods.
“All these are planning to rig elections and steal the mandate of ordinary Nigerians. Ideology no longer exists in politics”.
