Sources said the suspicion became widespread when the secretariat recently underwent a facelift.
“After the renovation, the speculation became widespread that the governor and his supporters are seeking refuge in APP because the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been hijacked by the former Governor, Nyesom Wike, and his loyalists.
“Some persons are not happy that the Governor has divided the political family that brought him to power and is planning to move them to another party. This is the reason for the bombing,” a source, who spoke in confidence said.
Though Fubara had not publicly announced any plan to dump the PDP, the Governor had berated the PDP accusing it of failing the State.
