BABA OYOYO!!! APC Weeps, As PDP Shuts Down One Of The Northern Nigerian Airports To Receive The Unstoppable Atiku Abubakar

Emerging report indicates that commercial flight operations were on Saturday, temporarily paralysed at the Yola Airport, as thousands of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, members took over the Airport to welcome former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, who resigned earlier on Friday, from the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.

Atiku, who arrived the Airport in a chartered flight at 12 noon, was sandwiched by PDP members and supporters, whom held him ‘hostage’ for several hours, chanting praises and announcing the death of APC in the country.

The State Chairman of the PDP, Abubakar Tahir Shehu, who led the party members to receive the former Vice President, told Journalists that the journey to recover PDP’s stolen mandate from the ruling APC, has commenced with the return of Atiku.

He said that Atiku would be given a fair and level playing ground with all other stakeholders, and that his return has changed the political narratives in the State and the country. 

However, reacting to Atiku’s resignation from the APC, the State APC leadership described his exit as a big blessing to the party, saying it has opened up chances for other members that left due to his presence, to return.

Adamawa APC Organising Secretary, Ahmed Lawan, said in Yola, that Atiku was not only a liability, but also a political cancer that killed the fortunes of the party in parts of the State.

He stated that many APC members left the party when the former Vice President decamped from the PDP and joined it, pointing out that APC has been praying for his exit from the party.

Lawan contended that with Atiku’s exit, the era of political terrorism has come to an end in the party, adding: “We in APC have succeeded in auctioning out a political property that has lost value. We have been shopping for buyers long ago, thanks to PDP for rescuing us from the waiting political disaster in the party come 2019”, he stated.

He dismissed insinuations that Governor Mohammed Jibrilla Bindow, might decamp together with Atiku, saying the Governor won in 2015 against Atiku’s candidate.
