Ahmadu Fintiri, governor of Adamawa, has formally joined the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In a statewide broadcast on Friday, Fintiri said his cabinet and members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have moved with him to the APC.
He said his defection was after wide consultations with a large spectrum of our people.
“We have resolved to politically align Adamawa State with the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“This alignment would enable Adamawa State to effectively support and leverage the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR, which aims to transform the nation in critical sectors including social welfare, infrastructure, housing and inclusive economic development.
The decision to leave the PDP and join the APC was not taken lightly. It was not driven by personal ambition nor by convenience. It was guided by one overriding consideration: the long-term stability, development and prosperity of Adamawa State.
“I want you to trust that this decision, is in our best interest. Wherever we go from here, we are going as a collective. With the required political strength and the numbers that confer value. We have structures everywhere.
“We are moving into the APC with all the 226 wards, 21 Local Government areas, all elected and appointed members and indeed our energy and our political machinery to confer benefit to our state, the nation and our people.
The governor called on his supporters to fit in, register massively in the APC and gear up for a future that is assured.
