Former military governor of Lagos state, Gen. Mohammed Buba Marwa has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. A statement issued on Monday in Abuja by Gen. Marwa’s media aide, Bello Zubairu said “the former military governor decided to quit the PDP on personal grounds”

It would be recalled that before the emergence of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Gen Marwa was the governorship candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change, CPC in Adamawa state and after the merger of CPC and other opposition parties to form the APC, thousands of his supporters from several local government areas of Adamawa state were technically denied the opportunity to register in the new party then.

Though the statement is silent on whether Marwa will be returning to the APC, it however stated that “the retired General will be making public his next line of action in the coming days.” iReports-ng.com however gathered that the former envoy may be returning to APC in the coming weeks.

“He appealed to his numerous supporters and well-wishers who have been calling him for direction from across the country to await his next move”, the statement added.

As disaffection in Adamawa State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) continues, former governor of Lagos State, General Muhammadu Buba Marwa has finally dumped the party for PDP.

The former governor said he was forced to leave the party by the deluge of injustice being meted out to him, adding that all efforts to get the situation regularised proved abortive, making the defection inevitable.

At a stakeholders’ meeting attended by many supporters of the former Lagos State governor at Lelewal Motel in Yola, it was unanimously agreed by all that in view of the injustice being entrenched in Adamawa State chapter of APC, they have no option than to dump the party.

While delivering his speech at the occasion, Marwa said he could not be in a party that tramples on people’s rights with impunity, adding that since the entry of Governor Murtala Nyako into the party, injustice became the order of the day.

“The party has been hijacked by Governor Murtala Nyako and there is no fair play in the way and manner the party is being run”.

Shut up! When I read it on Punch or so yesterday, they said he has resigned from PDP and has not 'defected' to a new party. He may make his plan known soon. So why are you foaming?!

SeverusSnape:
