Why I Parted Ways with Atiku – Adamawa Gov Fintiri

Governor Ahmadu Fintiri of Adamawa State has attributed his political split from former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to differences in party alignment, dismissing suggestions of a personal rift.

 

Speaking on Channels Television, Fintiri clarified that their separation was strictly political, stressing that he still maintains a cordial relationship with the former presidential candidate.

 

“I still have; there is nothing that has gone bad. It is just that everybody has taken their political ways. I am today in APC, they are in another party,” the governor said.

 

Fintiri noted that political differences have not affected communication between them, adding that individuals committed to Nigeria’s progress should continue to see themselves as partners in nation-building, regardless of party affiliation.

 

He further stated that his current political stance aligns with supporting a southern candidacy, underscoring that his decision was driven by political considerations rather than personal disagreements.

 

The comments come amid shifting political alliances ahead of the 2027 general elections.
