The new Peoples Democratic Party (nPDP) bloc in the All Progressives Congress (APC) has described the purported defection of Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as fallacy and figment of the author’s imagination.
The leader of the group, Alhaji Abubakar Baraje, stated this in his reaction to the purported defection of the former Kano State governor to PDP.
Baraje said nPDP would soon adopt a new name, adding that the bloc remains intact.
He maintained that the group would make public its position on the continued membership of APC on Thursday or Friday.
He said Kwankwaso played active roles in the decisions of nPDP and would continue to play such roles as a key leader of the group.
“We are all still in APC but the nPDP will come up with a lot of changes. nPDP is likely to change its name as a splinter group from APC,” he added.
