Suleiman Gummi had joined Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara State and other top Government Officials to defect to the APC in June 2021.

Suleiman Gummi, declaring his defection with his supporters to the PDP in Gummi, Local Government Area, Zamfara State, explained that he was frustrated out of the party after Governor Bello Matawalle and former Governor Abdul’azeez Yari shared 2023 election tickets among themselves, their supporters, and other APC leaders, which excluded him.
