He explained that before he dumped the APC, he had discussions with the APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu.
He said, "We spent over 40 minutes on the telephone even though he (Tinubu) had called for us to meet but I couldn't make it.
“Many people, including past and serving ministers, governors among others also called me on the same issue and I told them I have no problem with anyone."
Inuwa who came second during the APC governorship primary, losing the tucket to Umar Dikko Radda, directed that his campaign structure should be collapsed into that of the PDP.
