Governor Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko of Sokoto State has said that three governors from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are set to join the All Progressive Congress (APC) next month.

Two of the governors to join the opposition are from the North while the other one is from the South, he said.

Wamakko who was in Kaduna last night for the APC Northwest caucus meeting to strategise ahead of a zonal rally slated for Sokoto next month, said: “We met here to first and foremost put a functional zonal office and other offices to fill the gap and to hold zonal rallies to kick start our party’s victory stride by 2015.

“As I am talking to you now, three PDP governors are set to join the APC between now and the end of September. Two of the governors are from the North while the third one is from the South.”

When asked to comment on allegations that he has an anointed candidate to take over from him, the governor said: “Only God makes leaders, I cannot tell you who will succeed me in Sokoto State.”

On the defection of former Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) boss, Nuhu Ribadu from the APC to the PDP, he declined comments because he (Ribadu) is a man of his own who can take decisions for himself.
