In what may signal more trouble for Peoples Democratic Party in Kwara State, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, Senator Gbemi Saraki, has joined the all Progressives Congress.
Saraki, on Friday, who announced her intention to dump PDP to her numerous supporters and her decision to join the opposition All Progressives Congress, may not hold much in terms of electoral value as his elder brother’s huge political size has completely obliterated her political relevance in Kwara politics.
The daughter of the much reverred Olusola Saraki directed her followers to vote for the APC and its candidates in the general elections, especially General Muhammadu Buhari. Saraki, who arrived in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital, on Friday, told her supporters who followed her from the airport to her home in Iloffa area, to switch allegiance to the APC.
“I thank you all for always being there for me. “All of you know that tomorrow, March 28, is the last Saturday of the month and also the day for the presidential and National Assembly elections. “I urge you to sweep your environment very well with your brooms,” she said to her supporters.
