The Deputy Speaker of the Kaduna State House of Assembly, John Audu Kwaturu, representing Kachia and Junaidu Yakubu representing Kudan, have defected from All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Yakubu announced his defection in a letter dated August 7, 2018 and addressed to the APC ward chairman in Hunkuyi Ward, Kudan Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
In his letter of withdrawal from the APC, Yakubu said his decision to leave was informed by the fact that the leadership of the party at the state and local government levels had become draconian.

I feel I will not serve the interest of the people in my constituency the said leadership,” Yakubu stated in his letter.
He added that the decision was taken after consultations with the people in his constituency.
