The Speaker of the House of Representatives, YAKUBU DOGARA, may have finally defected from the ruling All Progressives Congress to the Peoples Democratic Party.

It was gathered last night that the embattled speaker had picked the PDP nomination and expression of interest forms to return to the House in 2019.

A member of the National Working Committee of the party, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that the speaker had picked the forms.

DOGARA had two days ago expressed his desire to return to the National Assembly in 2019 when members of his constituents visited him in Abuja but refused to state the political party that he would use to facilitate his ambition.

The Speaker had been having running battles with the leadership of the APC in both his state, Bauchi and at the national level.
