On why he defected to the ruling APC, Governor Fubara said the PDP’s failure to protect him during the recent political crisis in the state, while the APC offered the support and protection he needed necessitated his defection.
“I went to see Mr. President not just for a personal visit, but for a consultation on state matters,” Fubara said. “The most important outcome of that meeting is that we now have full support to leave where we were because we didn’t get the protection we needed. The struggles we faced were due to the crisis in the state.
If President Tinubu had not intervened, there wouldn’t be a Siminalayi Fubara today. We have the people and supporters with us. Our decision is to move to the APC and fully support the President’s second-term bid.” he said
