Jibrin while receiving the decampees, praised Tafida, calling him a ‘blessing’ to the party;
“We in PDP believe power belongs to God and that He gives it to whoever He wants.He has given us before and He has taken it but we are working to position ourselves to enjoy His grave once more next year” he said.
Speaking on the development, Tafida said;
“I am happy to be here. I am happy to be where I will be valued, appreciated and be given my due regard”.
