Punch Newspapers Sections John Alechenu, Abuja There are strong indications that a former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Oladimeji Bankole, is set to defect from the Action Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress. This followed a meeting between Bankole, the Chairman of the APC Caretaker/Extra-Ordinary National Convention Planning Committee and Governor of Yobe State, Mai Mala Buni; and his Jigawa State counterpart, Abubakar Badaru, in Abuja, on Friday. It was gathered that the three leaders met at Badaru’s private residence for a little over an hour behind closed doors. A picture of the meeting was shared on the party’s official WhatsApp group by the Director-General in charge of Media to the Yobe State Governor, Mallam Mohammed Mamman.
