His defection was announced on Wednesday by the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan.
Shekarau's letter of defection reads partly: “I am defecting from the APC to my new party, the New Nigeria Peoples Party as a result of unfairness, injustice by Kano State governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje.
“For the past two years there has been unresolved crisis in the Kano State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, hence, I have resigned my membership.”
