Now that APC Senator Ahmed Abubakar is running unopposed

News sources have published that senator Ahmed Abubakar (MoAllah Idi) is the sole candidate for APC in Adamawa state. This may not be unconnected with their pack on the removal of Senate president Senator Bukola Saraki or as a giveback for their continued loyalty to the party.
APC has anoited senators like Shehu Sani of Kaduna central, Goodwill Akpabio and Emmanuel Uduaghan among others as sole candidates.
Senator Abubakar no doubt became one of most under estimated personalities in the politics of Adamawa State but today he is making great waves seeing that some strong contenders like Morris Vonobolki, Felix Tangwami and Ahmed Fons Nwangubi were push aside to level way for him.
The question will be whether this decision by the All progressives Congress will not be detrimental to itself. One is left to wonder if the person of MoAllah-Idi has mustered enough political goodwill in Adamawa south to be able deliver for the party. Seeing the caliber of candidates showing up in PDP, ADC and SDP. Time, they say shall tell

The PDP government was said to have been self-seeking, clueless and corrupt. There was long list of accusations and among the party members and to the party and the government. Outside the party circle people were disenchanted and the call for “Change” was seemingly very timely even among n...
