Hey everyone Things are really heating up in Kaduna with the government elections coming up soon! It's quite a twist, in the landscape as than 200k members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have made a switch, to the All Progressives Congress (APC). Yes indeed. A 200k individuals have made this move which is causing quite a stir and could definitely impact the elections in a big way.
So, what’s driving this sudden exodus? While the finer details are still emerging, one thing’s for sure: the PDP is losing some serious numbers, and the APC seems to be the party with the magnetic pull right now. With local government elections fast approaching, this shift could be a gamechanger for the political landscape in Kaduna.
