The lawmaker representing Adamawa Central Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Senator Abdul-Azeez Nyako, has formally announced his defection from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Senator Nyako made the announcement on Monday in Yola, during the stakeholders’ meeting and inauguration of ADC Congress Committee for Adamawa State.
The lawmaker said he is compelled to leave APC with his supporters due to the injustice done during the recent congresses of APC in Adamawa State.
“We are hopeful and pray to God that this step taken will be better for us.
“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,” Nyako said.
Receiving the lawmaker, the Acting Chairman of ADC in Adamawa State, Alhaji Mijinyawa Kugama, said the party is committed to justice for all.
“We are going to ensure that everyone is carried along in the party during our congress starting from July 24,” Kugama said.
