2019: PDP will win Kaduna State – Senator Hunkuyi reveals

Senator Suleiman Hunkuyi on Friday July 27th, 2018 vowed to help the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) regain power in Kaduna State in 2019.

Hunkuyi, who represents Kaduna North at the National Assembly on the platform of the All Progressive Congress (APC) was among the 14 senators who decamped to other parties on Monday July 19th.

The Senator said this while on a visit to the PDP secretariat in Kaduna on Friday, adding that he decided to join the party in line with the agreement between the R-APC and the opposition party.

“We came to tell you that we have formally left the APC and we shall not turn back again”, NAN quoted him as saying.

“We have moved to the PDP with all our structure to join hands to take back power in Kaduna State from the APC,” Hunkuyi said.

He advised the PDP executives in the state to cooperate with the returnees to ensure that the party wrestle power from the ruling APC.

Hunkuyi urged the state PDP chairman Mr Felix Hyat to set up a committee with membership comprising the returnees and other members to fix a date for their formal return to the party.

According to him politics is about the people. Hunkuyi promised to mobilise all his supporters back to the PDP ahead of the 2019 poll.
