Another Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stalwart, the Assistant State Auditor of the Party in Gombe State, Sama’ila Baba has joined the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in the State.
His defection came few hours after the defection of the Northeast PDP Ex-officio, Mole Istifanus Bennet, and other stalwarts of the party from the southern part of Gombe State joined the Party.
He was also received into the NNPP by the gubernatorial candidate of the Party, Hon. Khamisu Ahmed Mailantari.
Mr Baba who confirmed his defection to our reporter, said he was the Kaltungo local government chairman PDP for about 10 year, and the assistant state auditor of the party until his resignation recently.
He said that, he joined the NNPP because of Mailantarki’s leadership qualities.
He said, “I join NNPP because of the exceptional leadership qualities of the Party’s 2023 gubernatorial flag bearer, Hon. Mailantarki.
“The candidates presented by both the PDP and the ruling APC are not sellable to the people of the state”.
Daylight Reporters has earlier reported that the PDP ex-officio alongside six others decamped to the NNPP and were also received by the Gombe State Governorship candidate of the party, Hon. Khamisu Mailantarki.
Ok and thanks again
