A former Senator and stalwart of the Peoples Democratic Party in Yobe state, Alh. Adamu Garba Talba, has dumped the party and joined the ruling All Progressives Congress.

Hon. Talba, said he moved to the APC to identify with the gaint strides of the APC administration in the state and to ensure continuity in development.

He said there is no hope for Yobe state and Nigeria in any other political party than the APC.

“I am here in APC for good and for the betterment of Yobe state and Nigeria” he added.

Governor Buni who received the former lawmaker described Talba’s defection to APC as home coming.

“Frankly speaking, there is no any other better place for you and all other Yobeans like the APC.

“We all have roles to play and contributions to make for a greater Yobe state and Nigeria.

“You are therefore welcome back and look forward to your positive contributions to enrich the party, build Yobe state and the development of Nigeria” Governor Buni said.

Some party chieftains including Alh. Mohammed Wali Shettima and the state Commissiiner for works, Engr. Umar Wakil Dudaye, supported Governor Buni, to receive the former legislator in a brief ceremony.
