A strong and a chieftain of the ruling in All Progressive Congress APC in Gombe State, Alhaji Habu Mu’azu on Sunday declared his interest to contest for Gombe Central Senatorial seat currently occupied by a former Governor of the state, Senator Danjuma Goje.
It would be recalled that Senator Goje has been having a fragile relationship with the party leadership in the state leading to a reconciliation meeting held in Senator Abdullahi Adamu house in Abuja with both parties on January 4th after he was attacked on November 5th last year.
However, the Sunday declaration by Mu’azu for Goje’s seat is raising dust on the viability of the reconciliation expected to give way for Senator Goje’s return to the Senate for the fourth term.
Mu’azu who made the declaration after a condolence visit to the Emir of Kumo, Ahmed Atiku in his palace said it was in response to the people’s call.
