“To set the records straight, Sheriff was known across the political divides of Bauchi State as a person who does not have stable loyalty to any party. His only assets in politics remain his ability to switch allegiance to any government in power.
“Moreover, Sheriff is known by all and sundry in the polity as a serial loser. He has never won in his polling unit to deliver the party in the previous elections,” he alleged.
Matori who restated the support of the coalition to Nana led leadership claimed that the APC chairman was able to lead the party to victory in 2015 elections in the state adding that even in the last 2019 polls, APC had won the presidential election, three senators, 9 members of the house of representatives and 22 members of the state assembly.
