Governor Babangida Aliyu of Niger state says he would rather resign from
active politics than defect from his party PDP to APC. Addressing some
local government Chairmen that paid him a solidarity visit at the state
Government house in Minna yesterday April 8th, the Governor referred to
PDP members who have since defected as stomach politicians who are
suffering from poverty, lack of morals and integrity
"Those who have defected from PDP to APC have clearly demonstrated that
they are not principled and they are suffering from poverty, lack
integrity and not morals and could easily be described as stomach
politicians. For me, I will rather resign from politics than defect to
APC or any other party. For principles of integrity, morality, we have
chosen to remain in PDP. I heard people insinuating that I have dumped
my party candidate for the APC candidate. It is a lie, I will never do
such a thing" he said
