Ahmadu Fintiri Defects To APC, Moves With Cabinet And PDP Officials
In an unexpected political move, the Governor of Adamawa, Ahmadu Fintiri, has defected to the APC in a major political development that has reshaped the landscape of Adamawa State politics.
The Adamawa State governor announced his decision during a statewide broadcast on Friday, confirming that he has defected to the APC alongside his entire cabinet and all officials of the Peoples Democratic Party in the state.
According to the governor, the decision to join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) was taken in the overall developmental interest of the people of Adamawa State. He stressed that the move would position the state for greater federal collaboration and accelerated growth.
With Ahmadu Fintiri defecting to APC, political observers believe the ruling party has further strengthened its foothold across key states ahead of future electoral contests.
Recall that Taraba State Governor Agbu Kefa, as well as the governors of Kano and Plateau States, Abba Yusuf and Caleb Muftwang, respectively, recently aligned with the ruling party. The wave of defections has continued to generate reactions within political circles.
The announcement that Ahmadu Fintiri has defected to APC is expected to spark fresh debates among stakeholders, especially within the opposition camp, as realignments continue across the country.
Analysts say the decision by Fintiri to move with his cabinet and party structure signals a strategic and coordinated transition rather than an individual political shift.
As Ahmadu Fintiri defects to APC, residents of Adamawa State will be watching closely to see how the new political alignment translates into governance outcomes and development promises.
