PDP's Woes Lingers As Former Governor, Senator Dump Party In Jigawa by TheMainone: 5:23am On Jan 19, 2019
By Abdullahi Shugaba

Less than a month to the presidential election, some heavy weights in opposition Pepoles Democratic Party (PDP), including a former governor of Jigawa state, have defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Those who defected are the first civilian governor of the state, Alhaji Ali Sa’ad Birnin Kudu and former Senator for Jigawa NorthWest, Alhaj Danladi Sankara.

Others are former commissioners, special advisers, and members of the state and National Assembly who failed to secure tickets to re-contest.

The Former Deputy Governor during the administration of Lamido, Alhaji Ahmad Muhammad was also among the defectors and is currently the campaign Director-General of the incumbent governor, Alhaji Muhammad Badaru.

Mr Suleiman Bulus of the PDP accused the defectors as hungry politicians, looking for something to eat.

”I am assuring you, anytime if PDP wins elections, the same people will still come back and meet us, I tell you,

”There is no cause for alarm, PDP will still recapture Jigawa this year, we don’t want to talk too much, just wait and see,” Bulus said.

In a swift reaction, Chieftain of APC in Jigawa, Alhaji Ishaq Hadejia, popularly known as Baba Ishaq, dismissed the claim that PDP will still capture Jigawa in the upcoming elections.

”That is a dream; we have already killed and buried PDP in Jigawa, that is just an empty outburst,

”PDP will not do anything in Jigawa it is because of the good leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari at the centre and governor Muhammad Badaru in Jigawa that people are defecting to our party on daily basis.

”The APC administration under present Buhari was able to fight, corruption, insecurity and unemployment.

”Buhari was able to achieve a lot in just about four years of his tenure which the PDP couldn’t in its 16 years of administration,” he said. (Credit: NAN)

Can you imagine this kind headline, a former governor that even you are just hearing his name for the first time all your life, what political value has he? Leave matter for Mathias, We are Atikulated to send Buhari back to Daura come FailBuhari.

We stay on ground depleting their rank and file, compromising their strength and ensuring their inevitable defeat. Meanwhile their candidate is busy doing boy boy work for Saraki, taking selfies in the US with such ecstasy, like a virgin touched for the very first time. cheesy

It would be a far more profitable venture sitting at home to watch cockroaches mating all day than going out on that day to thumbprint for PDP. wink

Apc is dying and in their bid to remain relevant in self deceit they are receiving members of a party they claimed destroyed Nigeria for 16years and celebrating it as if they are winning trophies.

The same moles they are receiving will lead to the final destruction of the hypocrite party.

There seems to be an organized gangup by the Northern political establishment against Atiku's candidacy and I find this worrying. This needs to be checked because he is beginning to look more and more like a southern candidate. Even GEJ had more across the board support in the North going into the 2015 elections.

You just don't get it do you?, the footballers are nothing without the spectators.
The actors and actresses are nothing without the viewers.
Who are politicians without the voters?.
Will you be willing to loose relevance if you are a politician?.
Buhari is like a religion in the North, those that are fleeing knows that they can't afford to swim against the tide.
