The National Secretary of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Mr. Labaran Maku, has defected to the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP).

A former Minister of Information under President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration, Maku confirmed this move to journalists in Lafia, the state capital.

He said his decision to return to the PDP was in response to the yarning of his people in Nasarawa State.
Maku defected from the PDP to APGA in 2015 after his unsuccessful attempt at clinching the PDP governorship ticket.

The former minister contested the Nasarawa State governorship position in 2015 and 2019 on the APGA ticket.
