A former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Nuhu Ribadu, has dumped the opposition All Progressives Congress [APC] and joined the Peoples Democratic Party [PDP].

Mr. Ribadu was the presidential candidate of the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria [ACN] in 2011 and until his defection today considered one of the presidential prospects of the APC in the 2015 presidential election.

A member of the executive committee of the PDP in Bako, Mr. Ribadu’s ward in Yola South Local Government Area of Adamawa state, told PREMIUM TIMES that the anti-corruption chief has been registered as a member of the party and given a party membership card.

The source asked not to be named because he was not authorised to disclose the development to journalists.
‎
A PREMIUM TIMES report had detailed how the PDP leadership led by the party’s national chairman, Adamu Muazu, mounted pressure on Mr. Ribadu to join the party and be its candidate for the October 11 governorship election in Adamawa.

The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has already released a timetable for an election being organised to replace former Governor Murtala Nyako who was impeached by the State Assembly last month.

‎Already, Acting Governor Umaru Fintiri and Awwal Tukur, a son of former chairman of the PDP, Bamanga Tukur, have picked the notice of ‎ intent form to seek the PDP governorship nomination for the election. A former military administrator of Lagos state, Buba Marwa, has also indicated interest in running.

Efforts to speak with Mr. Ribadu or his spokesperson, Abdulaziz Abdulaziz, were unsuccessful.

‎Both men’s mobile telephones phones were switched off when PREMIUM TIMES tried to reach them.

Mr. Ribadu is yet to publicly declare for the PDP although he has not refuted any of the reports linking him to the party.

Everybody in Nigeria seems confused.

even u Brutus.....lolzzz

Even you Brutus....lolzz

APC is a sinking ship while PDP is a moving ship.no man in his right senses will join a ship that is about capsiding.I wish pdp has a better opponent.

I wish to use this opportunity to welcome the former EFCC chairman, a great man of the people, Mr Nuhu Ribadu to the People Democratic Party PDP!
We believe your joining PDP is a realization that APC was a big mistake. A man full of integrity and wisdom has no reason to be in the company of supporters of APC who do not have any iota of ideology.
We hope that your wealth of experience will help transform our party, Adamawa State and the country at large.
May you live long as a bona-fide member of PDP.
