Senator Shehu Sani has joined the main opposition party, the People’s Democratic Party, (PDP).

Shehu Sani, a former member of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) left the ruling party for the People’s Redemption Party, (PRP) after a fall out with Governor Nasir El-Rufai.

It would be recalled that Senator Sani contested election to the senate and won on the platform of All Progressive Congress (APC) in 2015 but could not return to the Upper House in 2019.

Only recently he dumped the PRP after which he said he was in consultation to determine his next line of action.

It was gathered that the former lawmaker is planning to contest the Kaduna State governorship election.

Confirming his defection, Sanni’s close aide, Malam Suleiman Ahmed said, “It is true that Senator Shehu Sani has finally settled to join the PDP but official ceremony and reception will be in the next two weeks all things being equal”.

According to him, the Senator confirmed his defection on Thursday when he had a meeting with PDP stakeholders in Kaduna.
