Earlier, the duo attributed their defection to the APC to crisis rocking the PDP at the national level.
Alkali said, “the crisis rocking our party at the national level is the reason why I defected to APC after due consultation with my constituents”, he said.
Muluku said: “After due consultation with my party stakeholders, my constituency and other people in the state, I deem it necessary to dump PDP for APC to contribute my quota to the development of the state and Nigeria at large”, he said.
They, however, appreciated the PDP for giving them the opportunity to contest and win election to the House.
