A human rights lawyer in Nasarawa State, Yahaya Dauda Kana, has resigned his membership of the All Progressives Congress, APC, ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Kana announced his exit from the ruling party on Tuesday, stating his decision to pursue his political ambition under a new platform after accepting calls from supporters to contest for the Kokona West Constituency seat.
He has now joined the Social Democratic Party, SDP, marking a significant shift in his political alignment as preparations for the elections gather momentum.
His defection comes shortly after a visit to the former Minister of Information, Labaran Maku, at his residence in Wakama, a move seen by observers as part of broader consultations ahead of his declaration.
