Nigeria is currently witnessing the power of the "broom revolution" in
the combustible political space. Barely 3 weeks after the defection of
five governors elected on the platform of the ruling Peoples
Democratic Party, the PDP is faced with the loss of yet another major
player, former vice president Atiku Abubakar.

A high-powered political meeting holds in Abuja to welcome Atiku
and his supporters to APC:
“His mind and soul are all here because Turaki, as we all know
him, is a progressive to the core. That is why his ideals and
those of the leadership of the PDP have always conflicted.

“So the nation, not only the APC, will benefit if he finally makes
up his mind to join; and I am sure after our meeting today, the
polity will witness another lap of a political race.”
It was gathered that Atiku had been under pressure to dump the PDP
since the defection of five governors -
Musa Rabiu Kwankwaso (Kano), Murtala Nyako (Adamawa), Rotimi
Amaechi (Rivers), Abdulfattah Ahmed (Kwara) and Aliyu Wamakko
(Sokoto).

As part of moves to firm up his possible defection, Atiku will on
Wednesday play host to the leadership of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), including former head of state, General Mohammadu
Buhari, former Lagos State governor, Bola Tinubu and governors of
the party, at his residence in the FTC, Abuja.

Atiku’s Media aide, Garba Shehu, confirmed the latest development
between him and the APC leadership.

Atiku supposed to have done his defection quickly, because he will have no space in PDP for his political ambition. They are traitors and could not hold the Nigerian nation at peace.
