“The vagabonds in PDP; they grew up in 2015. They had their time and 10 years — a decade — they practised their ‘vagabondcy’ in the PDP. But they were expelled in November 2025, so no more vagabonds in PDP…So whatever it is that they are doing, you should be able to trace it back to their origin.”

But look at what has happened. Therefore, we see the defection of Governor Abba as a total betrayal of the Kwankwassiya Movement”
