The immediate past Governor of Bauchi State, Isa Yuguda, who worked fervently for the emergence of President Muhammadu Buhari\u00a0 has , predictably left the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.<\/p>\n
He was however shy of telling his men and the media where he is headed, but his body language and past activities suggest the obvious,\u00a0 APC.<\/p>\n
Yuguda, former Chairman,\u00a0 Adamu Mu’azu,\u00a0 and a former FCT,\u00a0 Bala Mohammed,\u00a0 all from Bauchi,\u00a0 were all fingered as some of the key PDP members who delivered Bauchi to Buhari.<\/p>\n
Despite the presence of these men, APC scored 931, 598, votes to PDP\u2019s 87,000.<\/p>\n
Yuguda, who spoke\u00a0 in Bauchi\u00a0 on Saturday said he decided to leave the PDP because the party had lost focus and presently lacked the will to bring development to Nigeria.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlready I have told my supporters that I will not force them to leave PDP. Anybody that wants to remain in PDP is free to do so and whoever wants to move with me is welcome.<\/p>\n
\u201cI decided to leave PDP because the party can no longer bring development to Nigeria, it\u2019s unfortunate that the party has lost focus,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe must always pray for the success of our leaders because the Holy Quran admonishes people to pray for their leaders to succeed and that is why we should pray for the success of President Buhari\u2019s administration,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Some if his\u00a0 supporters later\u00a0 trooped to the secretariat of the Nigeria Union of Journalists in Bauchi where they publicly tore their PDP membership cards<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
