I’m not happy Peter Obi, Kwankwaso left, it’s a setback – ADC spokesman

The Publicity Secretary of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Bolaji Abdullahi, has said he is unhappy over the decision of the former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, and his Kano counterpart, Rabiu Kwankwaso, to dump the party.

In an interview with Arise TV on Monday, Bolaji said Obi and Kwankwaso’s defection was a setback for the ADC.

He, however, said their resignation from the party gave the ADC relief to focus on what it ought to do.

He said, “Personally, I’m not happy that Peter Obi and Kwankwaso left the ADC, but in a way, it’s a bit of a relief.

“Is this a setback? The answer is yes. Is it a fatal blow? The answer is no.”

DAILY POST reports that Obi and Kwankwaso formally dumped the ADC for the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) on Sunday.
