A member of the Kaduna state House of Assembly representing ZangonKataf, Hon Samuel Kambai, was among prominent members of the Peoples Democratic Party who recently defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress in Kaduna state. He spoke to John Shiklam on the circumstances that led to their defection and why the APC was the preferred party to embrace.
You are among many members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) members who recently defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). What is the problem with the PDP?
The PDP was becoming undemocratic and we were frustrated out of the party. Congresses in our Local Government Area – Zangon- Kataf – were characterised by manipulation and other undemocratic tendencies. We were the ones funding the party because it is not in power. We tried to make the party grow in our various wards, but some undemocratic elements were undermining our efforts. They were doing everything to push us out of the party.
