Speaking to journalists in Gombe State, Liman declared his support to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.

He disclosed that he decided to resign from his appointment with the NNPP and defected to the PDP to support the former Vice President following his track record.

Liman called on Kwankwaso to withdraw from the race and back the PDP presidential candidate, adding that 16 years of the PDP administration was a success.

He said, “We registered more than 3.6 million people in the North-East region under the NNPP and Gombe State is one of the states in my zone, hence the need for me to go round and inform my supporters that I defected to the PDP.

“I am resigning my appointment as the North-East Zonal Secretary of the NNPP, as a member of the Presidential Campaign Council of the NNPP, and as a coordinator of the Kwankwasiya in the zone.

“We have nothing to do with the NNPP and Kwankwasiya again; not only have I defected but with me here is the Zonal Public Relations Officer, Ibrahim Tal, who also resigned his appointment to support Atiku Abubakar with our supporters as you can see.
