The real reasons why the former Plateau state governor, Senator Joshua Chibi Dariye recently defected from the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress, (APC),
was to avoid jail term as a result of graft proceedings against him by the government.

Close sources to the ex-governor in Abuja, said that the Senator representing Plateau Central at the Senate has been put under intense pressure by top echelons of the ruling APC to defect his party of over seventeen years and get a ‘waiver’ and reprieve from the numerous cases against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC).

Aljazirahnews reports that Senator Dariye is facing trial over alleged misappropriation of
over N12 billion state funds while he was the
chief executive of Plateau state between 1999 and 2007.

His case has refused to go off the public space since his debatable let-off under the ex President Olusegun Obasanjo administration when he escaped impeachment for same
allegations.

Aljazirahnews learnt that the leadership of the ruling APC having realized that the incumbent governor, Simon Bako Lalong was Dariye’s political stooge as speaker for the same eight years Dariye served as governor, decided to explore the political strategy to court him back to Lalong’s side to beef up the hold of the party in the state.

It was not clear as at press time to ascertain
which of the APC faction (El-Rufai or Tinubu)
led the political deal that eventual brought
Dariye on board but an highly placed source
confirmed that the EFCC trial was used as bait.

Politicians are very useless. All they care about is how to win election not how to affect society.
