“There has been a crisis due to the mismanagement of PDP by the leaders in our respective constituencies that led to its factionalisation and division.
“In such circumstances, the constitutional provisions allow us to join another party and retain our seats if there is a crisis,” they stated.
The speaker also read a different communication signed by Governor Nasir Idris to the House seeking the confirmation of Muhammad Ashiru-Garba as the new Chairman, Kebbi Local Government Service Commission following the death of the former chairman, Mansur Shehu.
