Former Sokoto State Governor and politician Aminu Tambuwal has dismissed claims of a crisis within the African Democratic Congress.

This is as he insisted that recent defections of Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso from the party to the National Democratic Congress were based on personal decisions rather than internal divisions.

The departures of the two opposition figures, alongside several federal lawmakers, have fueled concerns that cracks may be emerging within the ADC-led coalition ahead of the general elections.

Reacting during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Friday, Tambuwal said the exits were not driven by internal disagreement within the party.

“I do not believe that it was out of any crack. I believe that they wanted to go to another platform for them to possibly test their popularity with the Nigerian people at the general elections.”
