The Adamawa governorship hope of former EFCC
chairman, Nuhu Ribadu, has been left in tatters with the
desertion of the Peoples Democratic Party by bigwigs who
have now moved into the APC.
Leading the defectors was former Deputy Senate Majority
Leader, Jonathan Zwingina. Othes were a former Minister
of External Affairs, Idi Hong, and two serving Senators,
Bello Tukur and Ahmed Barata.
Senator Zwingina, who spoke on behalf of the defectors,
said they decided to pitch their tent with the APC to support
the party’s governorship candidate, Bindow Jibrilla.
In his words: “We are positive of the change going
on now in the country; we believe in the candidacy
of Bindow.”
Another top politicians in Adamawa, Sadiq Haske has also
decamped to the APC from the PDP.
Zwingina and Hong lost in their bid to represent Adamawa
Central and Southern district in the National Assembly
elections held on March 28 on the platform of the PDP.
They all met with the president-elect Muhammadu Buhari
who was in Yola to campaign for the APC. CLICK HERE TO READ FULL AND TOUCHING NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES BIOGRAPHY AND SCANDALS
