Namadi<\/p>\n

By Publisher<\/p>\n

Kindly share:<\/p>\n

Umar Namadi, Jigawa State Governor, on Monday tore the membership cards of the People\u2019s Democratic Party, saying the has almost extinct.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The torn cards belonged to defectors to the All Progressives Congress, APC, who paid him a visit at his residence at the Government House, Dutse.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
While\u00a0welcoming the\u00a0\u00a0defectors from the Dutse metropolis\u00a0to the ruling party, Namadi said\u00a0the PDP\u2019s popularity had significantly declined, with many of its members pouring into the APC.<\/div>\n
\n\u201cWe all know that there is almost no PDP left in Jigawa. As you join us in the APC, we believe the rest of your colleagues still there will soon follow,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He assured the defectors that they would be fully integrated into the APC\u2019s structure and treated equally.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe promise to carry you along just like every other APC member. APC is a party of equality and purpose,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Nasir Alhassan, who spoke on behalf of the defectors, thanked the governor for receiving them warmly.<\/p><\/div>\n

\nAccording to him, about 500 members had left the PDP to join the APC to be part of the development of Jigawa State, adding that their decision was informed\u00a0by the PDP\u2019s lack of direction and poor leadership.<\/p>\n

He posited that the APC seemed to be in control, with the governor’s leadership and popularity playing a significant role in the party\u2019s growing strength.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\u201cWe were tired of the PDP\u2019s leadership crisis and stagnation,\u201d Alhassan stated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
