The Public Relations Officer (PRO) of Gombe State chapter of the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Murtala Usman Dukku has dumped the party and joined the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).
He joined the NNPP after his resignation from the PDP on Wednesday as contained in a letter he addressed to the party in his ward.
