Kaduna lawmaker dumps PDP for APC, cites party crisis
The Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on House Services, Daniel Amos, has officially defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Amos, who represents Jema’a/Sanga Federal Constituency of Kaduna State, announced his defection during a well-attended rally at the Kafanchan Township Stadium, alongside Senator Marshall Kaduna (Kaduna South).
In a letter read at Wednesday’s plenary by Speaker Abbas Tajudeen, Amos explained that his decision was driven by what he described as unresolved internal crises within the PDP, which he said had weakened the party’s ability to perform effectively and truly represent the interests of Nigerians.
He said the decision to leave the PDP was a hard decision especially when considered against the backdrop of the fact that the party gave him the mandate to represent his people after years of dedicated service to the party.
He regretted that the PDP has regressed and has allowed itself to be weighed down by its own antics, making the party unattractive.
He said that after careful consultation with his constituents, he has decided to align with the policies of the Tinubu led APC government to bring further development to the people of his constituency as well as the efforts of Governor Uba Sani in bringing peace and development to Kaduna state.
