“After three years, however, I need to say that APC has grossly under-performed, and has forfeited any claim to my loyalty and continued membership."
APC should not be trusted

“I am not leaving to join another party. This is my decision, and mine alone. It has nothing to do with the President of the Senate, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki.
