Reactions have trailed the alleged defection of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Dogara, who represents Bogoro/Dass/Tafawa Balewa Federal Constituency in the House, allegedly picked up the opposition party’s nomination form to contest re-election under the platform.
While some have lauded the Speaker’s move, others have described it as disheartening.

How will the country grow/develop with this type of selfish attitude?— Bhadmus Hakeem (@Bhadoosky) September 13, 2018
Can someone pass this message to Edo Wizard that Dogara is now PDP.
Let him impeach him too. ???
Who would have thought that just three years of Buhari, power will CHANGE hands in NASS:
Senate President – PDP
Speaker of HoR – PDP— Adetutu Balogun (@Tutsy22) September 13, 2018
Saraki Dragged Dogara into his mess and left him to deal with the mess himself. Saraki is criminally smart, Although one day will be the end of the road for him, he always seem to mess people up and cut out. Be wary of all kind of Sarakis around you.

Media reports now confirming that the Speaker of the House of Reps, Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara is indeed back into the PDP.
PDP now has the Leaders of both the Senate and the House of Representatives in its fold.
2019 will shock APC like a live-wire.#DogaraReturns https://t.co/Q4B9mFzpdd

I served in Tafawa Balewa near Dogara house in Bogoro. True Dogara will win reelection but he can only come back to d HOReps as a sidon look. Not as Speaker.

TYPICAL DOGARA.
** Of all the gang, Dogara has been the most insidious, devious and sneaky- add ya own adjective, mbok. Nobody could really point to where he stood, what he stood for, nor qualify him, but you… https://t.co/IjDJaFS50s— BROOMPLATFORM APC (@broomplatform) September 13, 2018
Dogara also has defected I really pitied him bcoz he didn't rock the boat. I understand he has issues with his state governor and I understand his position and he did it quietly without making noise. That's show of character and being a gentleman.

If the result of the last senatorial election in Bauchi (about a month ago) is an indication of what is to come, then the only thing Dogara can win is local government chairmanship.
