In Taraba state, Jaafaru Yakubu (Bali/Gassol) and Sadiq Abbas Tafida (Jalingo/Yorro/Zing) moved from the PDP to the APC.

From now till November, hundreds of Politicians will decamp to ADC.

Tinubu did not run APC like a National party or govern Nigeria like a president. undecided

He Ignored the North and hardly has time to visit SS or SE like Goodluck Jonathan or Obasanjo.
He governs as if Nigeria ends in Lagos and Abuja. sad

DEFEAT awaits Tinubu at the polls as he has Failed honestly. embarassed

Delusion

So it's no longer 1 governor 1 vote again ?

If you can celebrate the defections of ordinary house of rep. What if a senator decamps to ADC?

This should be enough for IPOB to win 2027 presidential election

But that same day APC gained 14

What type of news is this

They just want LagoOrigin etc to celebrate rubbish grin

..celebrate ordinary 8 votes when another party gained 14votes against 200plus they already have in HOR.

There are some headlines you will read on nairaland frontpage and you will not but notice the sensationalism and agenda

News like.." NIGERIANS LAMBAST...."
..."NORTHERN YOUTH DID xyz"...."...when you check the news those people being refered to as NIGERIANS or NORTHERN YOUTH are just 6-8 people posting a negative comment under a post on twitter or facebook grin

ADC gained 10lawmakers and APC gained 14.

Governors with party structures in their state decamped to APC opposition said it doesn't matter.
