Former SDP guber candidate Baido reportedly dumps APC for ruling party

The governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, in the 2023 general elections in Taraba State, Danladi Baido Tijo, has formally defected to the All Progressives Congress, APC.

The announcement was made on Tuesday during a meeting between him and members of his campaign council at his residence in Jalingo, the state capital.

Speaking, Baido explained that his decision to join the APC was influenced by the impressive developmental strides achieved by Governor Dr. Agbu Kefas in less than two years in office.

He described Governor Kefas as a visionary and inclusive leader with a transformative agenda aimed at uniting the state beyond political, religious, and ethnic lines.

Baido called on the electorate, youths, and political groups to rally behind the Kefas administration to ensure the continued delivery of democratic dividends across Taraba State.

In their separate remarks, A.A. Liman and Senator Ibrahim Goje commended Baido for what they termed a bold and patriotic move made in the best interest of the state.

Meanwhile, several leaders of Baido’s campaign groups who spoke to our reporter pledged their continued loyalty and support as he begins a new political chapter with the APC.
