The African Democratic Congress (ADC) governorship candidate in Gombe State, Dr Bala Bello Tinka, has received a former chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Hon. Adamu Abdullahi Masad, who has defected to the opposition party. Tinka welcomed Masad into the ADC on Thursday, describing him as a grassroots politician with years of experience in party administration. Masad, a member of Birin Bolawa Ward in Nafada Local Government Area, previously served the APC as first financial secretary in Gombe State, assistant organising secretary, liaison officer for Gombe North and chairman of the APC in Nafada LGA. Tinka expressed delight over the defection, saying it indicated growing confidence in the ADC ahead of the 2027 general elections, and assured the new member of equal opportunities, inclusivity and full participation in the party.
