PDP chapter in Adamawa state says they are
working hard to bring back former Vice
President, Atiku Abubakar, into their fold.
The Adamawa State chairman of the party,
Abdurrahman Bobboi, disclosed this at a
press conference in Yola the state capital
yesterday July 24th. Recall that Atiku
defected from PDP to APC in February 2014.
His attempt to contest for presidency on the
platform of the ruling party failed.
The Adamawa state PDP chairman told
newsmen yesterday that the PDP national
hierarchy and the state chapter are making
a concerted effort to convince the former
vice president and other founding fathers,
who left the party to return.
“The former vice president was a founding
member, was vice president under the PDP
and he is resourceful. He has acquired vast
experience and should not be abandoned.
They’re working hard at the center and we
are doing same here in his home state,” he
said
According to Bobboi, APC has refused to
allow Atiku with his vast knowledge help
them find solutions to the challenges
plaguing the country
“APC is not tapping his experience; we that
know his resourcefulness will not give him
breathing space until he returns,” he stated.
Bobboi further announced that a
reconciliation committee had been formed
at the state level and would be headed by
former Governor Boni Haruna to bring
aggrieved members back to the party.
