Atiku Registers for APC in Jada, Encourages Supporters to Follow Suit

As widely expected, erstwhile Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar on Wednesday actualised his much-publicised defection to the All progressives Congress (APC) by registering his membership in Jada, Adamawa State.

On hand to conduct the membership registration were the Ganye Zonal and Interim Chairman of APC in Adamawa State.

The former vice president arrived at the registration centre at 2.12pm and was handed a form by the zonal chairman, which he filled out along with an attached passport photograph. 

At the end, the state interim chairman handed him a detached slip from the form with No. 02000841, which will serve as a temporary membership card until he is issued with laminated permanent membership card.

Speaking after the registration, Turaki Adamawa charged his supporters nationwide to avail themselves of the opportunity by registering as members of the APC so that together, they can bring about the desired change.

“To make good on the change that you are earnestly yearning for, I urge all my supporters no matter wherever you may be, to follow in my footsteps and register as a member of APC”, he said.

Earlier, Atiku had paid courtesy call on Emir of Ganye, Dr. Umar Sanda, who prayed and wished him well in his enterprise.

Thousands of people had lined the routes to Jada from Yola chanting “APC!!!” in solidarity with Atiku, who is the Sarduana of Ganye.
