Until now, Adamawa looked like a state that the PDP may have serious challenge with in 2015 going by the fact that a good number of the key political figures in the state are now in the All Progressive Congress (APC) or in talks with the party. But the recent decision of the leadership of APC to hand over party structures to governors who defected to the party is now threatening its prospects in future election in the state as major stakeholders in control of party structure believe that the political equation in the state naturally makes Adamawa an exception. Former Military Governor of Lagos and Borno States, Brig-Gen Buba Marwa, who was the gubernatorial candidadate of CPC in the 2011 election in this interview with Daji Sani, gave an insight into the situation within the party and warned their supporters had threatened to leave the party if certain issues were not urgently addressed
Two chieftains of the All Progressives Congress(APC) in Adamawa State, General Buba Marwa and Engr. Markus Nathina Gundiri have disputed the position of Governor Murtala Nyako that all members of APC are equal saying members of the Legacy Parties are superior to new entrants to the party.
A raging debate has ensued between Governor Nyako who recently defected to the APC and the members of the Legacy Parties over leadership of the party with Nyako’s camp claiming leadership being the state governor a position that was countered by the Legacy Parties.
