In a dramatic political twist, the Deputy Governor of Zamfara State, Mani Malam Mummuni, has announced the defection of the state government from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Mummuni disclosed the decision on behalf of Governor Dauda Lawal, declaring that the administration has formally aligned with the ruling APC in what observers describe as a major political shake-up in the North-West.
Announcement signals a significant shift in the political landscape of Zamfara, a state that had been under the PDP since the election of Governor Lawal.
Though details surrounding the decision were still emerging at press time, political analysts say the move could alter party dynamics ahead of future political contests in the state and across the region.
