Kwara PDP women leader resigns

As a fall out of the purported defection of Senator Gbemisola Saraki from Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to All Progressives Congress (APC), the state PDP women leader, Hajia Nimota Sulaiman has announced her resignation from the party.

Hajia Nimota is a famous associate of Gbemi Saraki who was elected the PDP women leader during the party’s state congress last year.

Our correspondent reports that though Gbemi had not declared publicly that she had dumped the PDP, she told her supporters on Friday to vote for APC in Saturday’s presidential election.

All efforts to speak with Gbemi Saraki on her defection proved abortive as she refused to speak to the press on Saturday when she came to cast her vote at Ode Opobiyi polling unit.
