Mr Fagengawo lost the APC primary election last May to Aminu Kanta, an ally of the governor.

Mr Fagengawo, who represents governor Muhammad Badaru’s constituency, was received by the PDP governorship candidate, Mustapha Lamido, on Tuesday during the final campaign rally of the opposition party in the Birnin Kudu Local Government Area.

He defected alongside former Dutse local government chairman, Zubairu Abaya, and eleven former councillors, who joined him in the opposition PDP.“I write to notify you that I resign my membership in the All Progressives Congress on 21 February, this is necessitated due to a series of conflicts happening at all stages of the party,” he stated in his resignation letter.

Mr Fagengawo later told reporters that he left the APC to assist his friend, the governorship candidate of the PDP, Mr Lamido to win the governorship election slated for 11 March.“I have decided to join the PDP to give the governorship candidate a helping hand in the forthcoming elections.
