Adamu Atiku Abubakar Stays Loyal to PDP Amid Defections
Adamu Atiku Abubakar, the son of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has announced his decision to remain with the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and will not join the All Progressives Congress (APC). This declaration comes amid a recent wave of defections from the PDP in Adamawa State, notably following Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri's public announcement of his move to the APC.
Sources within the state government have confirmed that Adamu has chosen to stay loyal to the PDP, despite pressures to defect alongside his colleagues. His decision reflects a commitment to his political roots and his father's legacy within the opposition party.
The situation has raised concerns among PDP leaders regarding the growing influence of the APC in the North East, as Adamu's refusal to join the defectors positions him as a key figure within the PDP's structure in the state executive council.
