Thousands of supporters on Saturday joined the 2023 senatorial aspirant, Tinok Andrew Nok, as she moved from the New Nigeria Peoples Party to the Labour Party in Kaduna State.
Tinok, who is consequently the younger sister of former Kaduna State Commissioner of Education, Prof. Andrew Nok, had expressed her conviction that the Labour Party shared her ideology of honesty and service to the people.
Tinok’s defection is now viewed as a significant boost to the Labour Party in Kaduna State, especially in light of the forthcoming elections.
