Grassroot talks
Sources have told Pulse that Atiku spent all of last weekend holding talks with PDP executives from his home State of Adamawa and Northeast zonal executives of the opposition party.
Adamawa State PDP State Secretary, Abdulllahi Prambe, confirmed the meetings and told the media that there were fruitful.
“Our meeting with him has been fruitful and from his body language, he will soon return to PDP,” Prambe said.
“With Atiku, the party will carry more weight and more people will also troop in,” he added.

Recall that Atiku hails from Adamawa State where he’ll register as a PDP member.
The Nation reports that Atiku will re-register in Jada 1 Ward of Adamawa as a PDP member on December 6, 2017.
Alhaji Saidu Nera who is the APC State Secretary in Adamawa says Atiku’s resignation letter has been received by his party.
