My relationship with APC ended in tears — Ex-Jigawa Deputy Gov

The former Deputy Governor of Jigawa State, Ahmed Mahmoud Gumel has said that he cried over the failed performance of the All Progressive Congress (APC) while he was in the party.

The Informant247 observes that Gumel just defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

He received his new PDP membership card in Bamaina, the country home of the former Governor Sule Lamido.

While narrating his experience with his former party, APC, he said he was full of regret and pain.

He said the party performed woefully as it was not able to able to deliver to the expectations of the people.

“I used to shed tears whenever I see how things are happening in APC and remember how things were when we are in government under the Peoples Democratic Party,” Gumel stated noting that it was high time for him to rejoin his party and meet his people to make things better.

“That is why I didn’t tear my old PDP membership card because I know I will come back to my house one day because we build the house,” he said.

He falsified the claim that he left his former party alone.

“I and all my supporters who worked for the success of APC in 2015 and 2019 have quit the party and will work for the victory of PDP in the coming 2023 general election,” he asserted and also affirmed that more prominent politicians in the state will join PDP in the next two weeks.
