The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Katsina State has assured new members who defected from the All Progressive Congress (APC) that they will be given equal treatment in the state.
The party’s gubernatorial candidate, Alhaji Yakubu Lado-Danmarke, gave the assurance on Sunday in Jibia while receiving 12,936 APC members from Kaita and Jibia local government areas.
He also gave assurance to the people of the area that if elected he would restore security, peace and order in the areas within 100 days.
Lado-Danmarke alleged that “wickedness, hatred and bad government policies” had hindered business activities in the areas.
