Senator Abdul-Azeez Nyako has defected from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
The lawmaker who represents Adamawa Central announced his defection on Monday during a Stakeholders’ Meeting and Inauguration of ADC Congress Committee for Adamawa in Yola, the state capital.
As stated by him, the APC is not founded on the principles of justice, stressing that the recent congresses of the party in the State was a pointer to that.
“We are hopeful and pray to God that this step taken will be better for us,” Nyako said.
“Justice is the foundation for everything good and we want to enjoin ADC to ensure justice to all so that more people will come and join.”
Receiving the lawmaker, the Acting Chairman of ADC in Adamawa, Alhaji Mijinyawa Kugama, said the party was committed to justice for all.
“We are going to ensure that everybody is carried along in the party during our congress starting from July 24,” Kugama said.
