Bawu, who defected to the PDP with other officials of the party in the Northeast, blamed the lack of LP structure at the State, local and ward levels for the decision.
Announcing his defection in Bauchi on Tuesday, he said: “The LP is not strong and won’t be able to win a single seat in the region.’’
“We don’t want to waste our votes and we want to use this time to mobilize votes to who can win the election,” he added.
