On Monday, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) lost several former candidates in the North when they defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). APC National Chairman, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, received the defectors and warned that reintroducing fuel subsidy would cripple the region and halt ongoing projects. The defectors, led by Princess Aslam Aliyu, known as Gimbiyar Kauran Namoda, delivered a statement emphasizing their commitment to serving the people and supporting President Tinubu's agenda.
Yilwatda questioned the opposition's promise to restore fuel subsidy, highlighting ongoing construction projects across Northern Nigeria and the financial implications of such a move.
