Adamawa Governor Fintiri Defects to APC

Governor Ahmadu Fintiri of Nigeria===Adamawa State has officially defected from the Nigeria===People s Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling Nigeria===All Progressives Congress (APC). This decision, announced in a statewide broadcast, was made after extensive consultations and is aimed at aligning Nigeria===Adamawa State with the federal government to ensure the welfare and development of its citizens. Fintiri stated that the move would enable the state to better leverage federal partnerships and tap into the Renewed Hope Agenda in key sectors like infrastructure, housing, and social welfare. He confirmed that his entire cabinet, along with all elected and appointed members across the 226 wards and 21 local government areas, would be joining him in the APC. This defection follows a wave of resignations from the PDP by other high-ranking officials in Nigeria===Adamawa State, including a senator, the Speaker of the State House of Assembly, and 14 other members. The move is expected to significantly reshape the political landscape of Nigeria===Adamawa State and has implications for future electoral contests.
