Pioneer chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Nuhu Ribadu, has returned to the All Progressives Congress.
Ribadu confirmed the move in a statement which was published on his Facebook page.
“I have finally heeded the calls on me to return to the All Progressives Congress, a party of which I was a founding member,” he said.
The ex-EFCC chair, who in 2014 left the Action Congress of Nigeria which later merged with the Congress for Progressive Change to form the APC, explained that his return to the APC was influenced by events in the last 15 months.
The three reasons he gave were:
- My belief that all politics are local. Almost everyone around me, and with whom we started my political journey believed the time had come for us to make sacrifices and make concessions.
- The unbelievable love that my friends in the APC have showered on me in the past months.
- The genuine and sincere invitations I received since last year to retrace my steps into the party.
