Just as Judas betrayed Jesus, so would political supporters tend to betray their parties for rivals during the buildup to every election. 

This has been evident in the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) camp with the rise of the G5 governors and the such as the Labour Party (LP).

Although the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) over the past year, this woman’s case might be the juiciest because of the drama attached.��

What went wrong between her and the APC, causing this drama?

The Naja’atu-APC fallout 

The first sign of ‘love gone bad’ between Naja’atu and the APC was when she filed her resignation letter to the APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu.

However, Naja’atu didn’t waste time sharing the developments, as she had an the day after her resignation.��

In the interview, she gave more context into her leaving the APC due to Tinubu’s ‘ill health’ and ‘dementia’.

The day after the interview, Naja’atu must have decided that party politics were still ‘her thing’ after all. She to her former boss’s rival — Atiku Abubakar of the PDP.��

to her, she chose Atiku because she didn’t have the “luxury of time” and thus had to pick between “the devil and the deep blue sea.”

According to Tinubu’s Adviser on Public Affairs, Mahmud Jega, Naja’atu was fired for incompetence and leaking vital information to rival parties.

Since then, it’s been nothing but disses from Naja’atu concerning the inner workings of the APC. Let’s outline four of them:

Tinubu’s illnesses

During her interview with Whistlers, Naja’atu revealed that Tinubu has Alzheimer’s because “he couldn’t even hold a cup of tea.”

According to Naja’atu, “Some people from Maiduguri called me asking, ‘Hajia, why did you do this? You have now punctured our interest. Our son is going to be president, and you’re talking like that? After all, look at Tinubu; he cannot do it. We’re all for Kashim.”

“Terrorist Kabiru was arrested in Shettima’s house”

Naja’atu in an also accused Shettima of being in cahoots with terrorists.��
