The Gombe State chairman of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, Abdullahi Umar, has defected to the All Progressives Congress.

The NNPP has taken the main opposition status in the state House of Assembly, as it has taken over from the Peoples Democratic Party which has four in the 24-member house.

Our correspondent reports that the Gombe NNPP, through its governorship candidate, Khamisu Mailantarki, has welcomed thousands of defectors from the APC and the PDP.

However, according to a press statement made available to our correspondent by the party’s Director-General of Press Affairs, Ismaila Misilli, “Umar (the state chairman of the party) announced his defection after meeting Governor Yahaya Inuwa at his residence today (Thursday).”

Names were mentioned here and figures weren't exaggerated unlike PDP that wouldn't mention names of their 400,000 decampees. They think propaganda can win them this election!

They wanted to use the fuel and new Naira notes scarcity to anger the masses especially northerners who usually give bloc votes to the APC. I'm glad el Rufai and Badaru have spoken up after Tinubu's outburst.

God bless incoming President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

It actually backfired right in their faces. More discerning minds have now drawn a line between the cash and fuel scarcity problems and Tinubus ambition and they know both are seperable.

Infact, a lot of neutrals are now drawn to tinubu since he challenged the unholy and emerging status quo in abeokuta. They are now convinced he is a dogged fighter and a selfless leader.
