2023: Excitement in PDP as Atiku Arrives Kano to Receive Shekarau
By Ozumi Abdul
The Kano state chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Shehu Sagagi, has expressed delight that the Senator representing Kano Central, Ibrahim Shekarau, is joining the party.
“I am delighted to tell you that Shekarau, being the highest political office holder as provided by the constitution, has accepted and we have welcomed him back to our dear party, the PDP”.

Sagagi also disclosed that the presidential candidate of the party, Atiku Abubakar, and national leaders are in Kano to receive the former governor and his political associates.
Shekarau had, in 2019, dumped the PDP for the All Progressives Congress.
He was subsequently elected into the Senate on the party’s platform.
However, he fell out with Governor Abdullahi Ganduje and defected to the New Nigeria People’s Party where he only spent a few months in the new party before his relationship with Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso went sour after some staunch loyalists of the senator did not get NNPP tickets to contest elective positions in the forthcoming general elections.
