The article discusses a political situation in Sokoto State, Nigeria, involving Muhammad Bello Aliyu Goronyo, the former chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). The current PDP chairman, Hayatu Tafida Aminu, claims that Goronyo had actually left the party about nine months before he officially announced his resignation on August 30, 2026. Aminu states that Goronyo was secretly involved with another party, the African Democratic Congress (ADC), while still acting as the PDP chairman, which he believes is against party loyalty. He sees Goronyo's recent appointment as the head of the ADC campaign team as a confirmation of Goronyo's shift in allegiance. Despite acknowledging Goronyo's past leadership role in the PDP, Aminu says the party will not pursue legal action against him and will instead focus on strengthening the PDP for the upcoming 2027 elections. He insists that the PDP is united under his leadership and has completed its candidate selection for the elections.
