Pdp Collapses In Borno As Over 5000 Join Apc by garfield1(op): 9:46am On Sep 20, 2022
About 5,000 supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP including it’s Chairman Working Committee Minority Tribes and Associations in Biu Local Government Area of Borno state, Hon Haruna Garba, popularly known as ‘One-Ten’ yesterday dumped their former party and joined the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.



Biu is one of the largest and most developed local government areas, apart from Maiduguri Metropolitan Council and Jere local government area in the state.

Recall that Governor Babagana Zulum and the state Chairman of the APC, Hon Ali Bukar Dalori among other dignitaries were in Biu for the past three days, where they commissioned various projects including 60 classroom blocks constructed for the community School for Higher Islamic Studies, Mega School in Buratai, foundation laying for the construction of Vocational and Skills acquisition centre and disbursement of over N200 million empowerment initiatives in the Council area.


The ex-chieftain of PDP, Alhaji Haruna Garba who led the new entrants, including women and youths leaders from different wards within the local government area into the APC, attributed their decision to the good and purpose-driven leadership style of Gov. Zulum.

He cited that Governor Zulum has within the last three and half years restored peace and harmony, and provided needed dividends of democracy with educational transformation among other achievements too numerous to mention.


He appealed to the present administration to carry them along in the discharge of policies and programmes in moving Borno to greater heights.

Most of the defectors in an interview with Journalists said the efforts of the present administration in the provision of potable water, construction of classroom blocks, poverty alleviation materials and improvement in the health care delivery services in the area convinced them to join the APC.


They said their decision to join the APC was to appreciate the governor’s people-oriented policies toward improving the well-being of the people.

Welcoming the new members, Gov. Zulum said the APC-led state government had entrenched good governance, Justice and transparency, as well as inclusivity.

He urged the new defectors to rally around the present administration in it’s quest to reposition Borno and regain its lost glory.

He assured them that the government under his leadership will give equal treatment in providing the needed dividends of democracy at all levels.

”With the calibre of defectors received in Biu LGA, the APC in Borno had been further fortified and this means that our chances in 2023 are getting brighter by giving our block votes to our Presidential Candidate, Ahmed Hola Tinubu, his running mate and Vice-Presidential Candidate, Senator Kashim Shettima, and all other candidates contesting on our party’s platform to ensure victory”, the governor added.

The Chairman of APC in Borno state, Ali Dalori while assisting the governor and presenting the new APC flags and membership cards to the new entrants, lauded Zulum for delivering on his mandate to transform the state.

He said: ”This is why APC has become a party that everyone wants to join and we will keep receiving new members”. He stated.

This is my problem with you. When you start losing argument, you resort to name calling, baseless accusations and attacks. The other day, you said Atiku hired us. Now this.

This na old news na. It was on fp on 16 September
Besides, I thought you said PDP does not exist in Borno. So who are those 5000 defecting from one LG? Are they spirits or audio?
In fact, if PDP can boast of 5000 members in one LG in Borno, that means in all the 27LGs, it can boast of 130,000 members. If we go by the results of 2019 elections, that means at least 60,000 out of the 130,000 members voted for Buhari. You can be rest assured that those 60,000 will come to vote for PDP in the 2023 elections which means PDP will improve on their performance in 2019. If you add to the fact that out of the remaining 800,00 that voted for Buhari, some will vote for Atiku especially those that are pro-North among them, that means PDP is going to do better than they did in 2019 in Borno.
Besides, who wouldn't defect when the governor came there with a chest of 200m. Out of those 5,000 there are those who will form defection so they can get a share of the booty only to go back to PDP after chopping their own. Don't blame them. Anyone would want to chop out of the 200m free gift of APC.
This news seems to favour PDP more than APC self cheesy cheesy

A party collapsing in a state or area doesnt mean they dont exist or dont have members.it means they are no longer effective,have strong members or can't get up to 50_000 votes.every party exist in borno even labour and nnpp.but how many votes can they get?
If you know politics well,you will forget about borno.do you see me bother about Adamawa? Most polling units in borno are in idp camps and special centres completely controlled by government forces.there is nothing pdp can do about it.in 2011,2015 and 2019,pdp had the lowest votes from borno.go to the 2019 presidential election tribunal judgment and read the account of pdp agents in borno and yobe.pdp agents were arretrsd,voters coerced and cajoled.it was one way,pdp was helpless.will anything change with shettima on the ballot? Whether bvas reduce votes or not,be sure that 95% that turnout will be made to vote one way...
For a party to win election,you must strengthen your strongholds,increase pressure in swing states and closemark the opposition in their bases.it us exactly what apc did in 2015 and 2019.pdp in 2015 focused only ss/se.in 2019,they went for the north and forgot to protect their strongholds allowing apc to undercut them.they are repeating the same mistakes.de ja vu son

Who said PDP is collapsing in Borno? That is not even part of the headline. That is your own imagination you added to the title of the thread.
It is obvious you are still banking on rigging which is why you are talking about voters "made to vote one way" rubbish.
Who will make them vote. Highest they can do is monetary inducement. Votes were heavily rigged in Borno in 2019. There was a video of heavy rigging going on into the night in Borno. That will not be the case this time around. Besides, you overrate Borno, it is number 3 in the NE behind Bauchi and Adamawa. Buhari was very close to Atiku in 2019 in Adamawa. No way that can be the case in 2023. Atiku got less than 100k votes in Borno in 2019, even if that happens in 2023 due to the Shettima effect, Adamawa votes for Atiku will cancel that out and leave at least 100k extra. So how exactly you're rejoicing over Borno is what I don't get.
Bauchi will be massively captured for PDP. Buhari won Bauchi hands down in 2019 but this time around, it is easy for PDP to convince Bauchi people that it is bringing the presidency home to them like Ahmadu Bello did for Tafawa Balewa. Bauchi will vote heavily for Atiku. Atiku will win NE overall by a landslide. Nothing for APC there cheesy cheesy
