Ahead of 2023 general elections, a serving member of the House of Representatives in Kogi state, Idirissu Lawal, has dumped the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Lawal, who represents Ajaokuta federal constituency in the lower chamber of the National Assembly, has joined the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).
The two-term Rep member emerged candidate of NNPP in a primary election conducted on Friday and will seek a third term on the party’s platform in 2023.
