Governor Matawalle to join APC on June 12 – Anonymous Source

Following the dissolution of the Zamfara State executive council on Tuesday , there are reports that Governor Bello Matawalle has plans of defecting to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

According to an anonymous source who said he was not authorised to speak on the development, Matawalle will formally declare for the APC on June 12, as part of the ceremony to mark Democracy Day.

The source said the governor dissolved his cabinet because some members, including the deputy governor, Mahdi Aliyu, are reluctant to join him to the ruling party.

For a while, it has been rumoured that the governor has been harbouring plans to dump the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), even though some leaders of the APC in the state do not want him in the party.

On Tuesday, he sacked the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Bala Bello, the 23 commissioners, his Chief of Staff, Bala Mande, and the Deputy Chief of Staff, Bashir Maru.

Following the development, sources who spoke with newsmen said the governor will finally dump the PDP on June 12.
