Former Governor of Sokoto State, Senator Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, has downplayed the wave of political defections in Nigeria’s Northwest, stating that they are motivated by personal interests rather than the welfare of the people.
Speaking to journalists after the maiden Zonal Executive Council Meeting of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Northwest in Kaduna on Saturday, February 15, Tambuwal criticized defectors who align with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), arguing that their decisions are self-serving.
“People leave parties for different reasons. But what I have observed is that defections are not based on the interest of the people but on personal gains, what I call ‘stomach infrastructure,’” Tambuwal said.
He also took aim at the APC-led federal government, accusing it of poor governance and failing to address the economic challenges facing Nigerians.
“If you are a politician with a conscience, you wouldn’t join the APC given the current economic hardship and the poor performance of the Tinubu administration,” he stated.
Tambuwal urged opposition parties to unite and strategize ahead of the 2027 elections to offer Nigerians a viable alternative.
“There is nothing appealing in the APC beyond personal benefits. Those of us who believe in this country and in service to the people must come together to ensure that by 2027, we remove this administration that has failed Nigerians,” he added.
