BREAKING: Fresh Trouble hits APC as Ex-Speaker Dogara Decamps to PDP
A former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, has dumped the ruling All Progressives Congress for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Dogara’s defection comes barely 48 hours after Dogara and some aggrieved northern APC leaders declared support for the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
Dogara was received into the party during the presidential campaign of Atiku in Lagos.
The development laid to rest speculations on the next move of Dogara and members of his camp.
Recall that the Northern Elders Consultative Forum, including the Christian leaders of the APC in the North, had on Friday, formally adopted Atiku for presidency.
The APC Northern Christian leaders had said Atiku was adopted following the resolve of the leaders to work with their Muslim counterparts to adopt one of the presidential candidates in a bid to challenge the same-faith presidential ticket of the APC.
