A former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, has been appointed into the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) with “immediate effect”.
The PCC Director-General, Aminu Tambuwal, announced the appointment in a statement on Sunday.
He said it was part of continuous effort in joining hands with the party’s Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar, to recover “our Great Country, Nigeria”.
Dogara had of late led a group of mainly All Progressives Congress (APC) members of northern extraction to adopt Atiku as candidate for the 2023 presidential election.
The lawmaker representing Bogoro/Dass/Tafawa Balewa Federal Constituency had condemned the APC’s same-faith ticket of Bola Tinubu and Kashim Shettima.
