The Secretary of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), North-East zone, Dr Babayo Liman alongside hundreds of supporters, have dumped the party for the PDP in Gombe State.
Liman, who is also a member of the Rabiu Kwankwaso Presidential Campaign Council, announced this at a news conference on Saturday in Gombe.
The Secretary said he resigned from the NNPP and joined the PDP to support its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
“We registered more than 3.6 million people in the North-East region under the NNPP and Gombe is one of the states in my zone.
“Hence the need for me to go around and inform my supporters that I have defected to the PDP.
“I am resigning my appointment as the North-East Zonal Secretary of the NNPP, as a member of the presidential campaign council of the NNPP and as Coordinator of the Kwankwasiya in the zone,” Liman said.
