The Deputy Governor of Sokoto State, Ahmed Aliyu has vowed to remain in the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Tambuwal had dumped the APC for the opposition Peoples Democratic Party on Wednesday, in the gale of defections that has hit the ruling party.
But the Chairman of the Northern Senators Forum and immediate past governor of Sokoto State, Senator Aliyu Wamakko, has dismissed the defection of Governor Aminu Tambuwal to PDP, reiterating that Sokoto state remains an APC state.
He also restated the state’s support for Buhari, saying, “We’re solidly behind President Muhammadu Buhari.”
