Ibrahim Bilal, state Chairman of APC told newsmen that the former PDP governor in the state dumped his party with thousands of his supporters.
“I want to use this opportunity to announced that the former Governor of the state under the Peoples Democratic Party, Mr James Ngillari, has decamped to All Progressive Congress .
