From Yusha’u A. Ibrahim, Kano
Former Chairman of the defunct All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP) in Kano State, Alhaji Ibrahim Al-Amin Little, has decamped to the Peoples’ Democratic Party(PDP). He was until now, a member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Little told journalists in Kano yesterday that he dumped the APC for its inability to redeem “virtually all its campaign promises to the electorate”.
“I am highly disappointed in the APC because it has reneged on the promises it made to Nigerians. What we have been accusing other political parties of doing, the APC is now doing them. There is poverty everywhere and the APC is not doing anything to bail-out the masses.
“I am in politics to serve my people directly or indirectly and I am not comfortable with the way the ruling party is handling the affairs of Nigerians.
“Although, I do not regret supporting and voting for Buhari, I cannot remain in the party because it is not running the country properly. I hold Buhari in high esteem but he is not in control of the present government,” he said.
He added, “our major problem is that our political parties are not based on ideologies”.
