-
From: John Johnson 

Plateau,Former PDP chieftain, Hon. Tijjani Muhammad Amana, has defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC), citing a desire to join forces with Governor Mutfwang in building a better Plateau State. Amana's move is seen as a significant boost to the APC's efforts to strengthen its presence in the state.

Amana, a respected figure in Plateau politics, expressed confidence in the APC's vision for the state and its ability to deliver good governance and development. His decision underscores the growing appeal of the party's message among Plateau's political elite.

The defection comes after Governor Mutfwang's recent decision to join the APC, and Amana's move is likely to further energize the party's supporters. The Governor's leadership is expected to play a key role in shaping the APC's agenda in Plateau State.

Amana's resignation from the PDP leaves a significant gap in the party's leadership, and his defection is likely to trigger more defections. The move has sent shockwaves across the state's political landscape, with many speculating about the implications for the 2023 elections.

In a statement, Amana thanked his former party members for their support and pledged to work tirelessly for the APC's victory in Plateau State. He emphasized the need for unity and collective effort to drive development in the state.

Shamsideen Magaji Ssa, media aide to the Executive Chairman of Mangu LGC, confirmed Amana's defection and praised his decision to join the APC. Ssa described the move as a bold step towards building a better Plateau State.

Amana's defection is expected to have far-reaching implications for Plateau State politics, with the APC likely to leverage his influence to gain ground in the state .

From:  Mustapha Aminu  Abuja, The National Coordinator for Advocacy for Good Governance and Accountability (AGGA), Kayode Olawole, has condemned the arrest of Dr. Abdullahi Bello Bodejo and accused the Taraba State Government of acting in a compromised manner. In a communique issued in Lagos on Monday, Olawole described the development as a deliberate attempt to damage the reputation of the All Progressives Congress (APC), not only in Taraba State but across the North and the country at large. According to Olawole, the treatment being meted out to Alhaji Dr. Abdullahi Bello Bodejo by the Taraba State Government is both wrong and unacceptable. He argued that the repeated arrests and what he termed political witch-hunting amount to a misplaced priority that undermines the spirit of inclusivity within the ruling party.

While supporting the Nigeria Police Force's action, ACYLF urges the Gombe State Government to address the economic implications of the restriction on resident...
