Adamu Garba, an All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain, has claimed that a former director in Bola Tinubu’s presidential campaign council, Naja’atu Muhammad, defected to the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
WITHIN NIGERIA previously reported that the 67-year-old Kano-based politician had left the APC and resigned from her position as Director of the APC Presidential Campaign Council’s Civil Society Directorate.
Muhammad announced her resignation in a letter to APC National Chairman Abdullahi Adamu.
Garba responded to the news on his verified Twitter account, saying the Sokoto-based politician left the APC because she struggled with loyalty.
The former presidential aspirant claimed that Naja’atu had similar problems with President Muhammadu Buhari after he took office.
Garba stated on Twitter that Naja’atu was never close to Tinubu, as she claimed, and that she has always been critical of power shifting to the South since its inception.
The APC chieftain tweeted:
Hajiya Naja’atu Mohd is known with issues of keeping up with loyalty. She had similar issues with President Muhammadu Buhari after he won the Presidency. She doesn’t know how to play politics of power but the opposition.
Her move to a perpetual opposition PDP further qualifies her CV. She is never close to Tinubu, she has always been critical of power moving to the South from day one.
She believed Buhari favors the South more than the North, Perhaps she personally had expected some office in Buhari’s cabinet, but as a general, Buhari won’t tolerate disloyalty.
Garba emphasized that whatever the politician says about the former Lagos State Governor is nothing more than a typical motor park conductor conversation.
