Fintiri's Defection to APC a Major Setback for Atiku

The Presidency has characterized Governor Ahmadu Fintiri's recent defection from the People's Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) as a substantial blow to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar. This statement was made by special adviser to President Bola Tinubu, Bayo Onanuga, who emphasized that Fintiri's move is indicative of the need for advancement and progress in Adamawa State.
The commentary suggests that Atiku Abubakar, a prominent figure in the PDP, should contemplate retiring from politics following this development. The remarks were reported on a Friday, highlighting the strategic implications of Fintiri's shift in political allegiance for both the PDP and Atiku's political future.
