The Director General of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Campaign Organisation in Gombe State, Alhaji Bala Bello Tinka, has defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Popularly known as “Tinka Point”, he announced his defection after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at State House, Abuja, on Thursday night.
Presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina, said in a statement that Tinka Point pledged his allegiance to the APC, and also vowed to bring his political weight to bear on the president’s second term bid. Buhari campaigns in Gombe today where Tinka is expected to formally join the APC alongside others.
