The north is torn between the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, and his All Progressives Congress (APC) rival, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

2023: APC, PDP members dump party for NNPP in Yobe
The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in Yobe state on Sunday, November 13, accepted some defectors from the All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party.
The defectors were received in Kaltungo local government area of Gombe state by the NNPP's governorship candidate in the state, Khamisu Mailantarki.
Mailantarki described the defections of the new party members as a great success and promised them that they will be given a level-playing ground and carried along in all of the NNPP's activities.
Claiming that the APC and the PDP have failed the people, the gubernatorial candidate noted that the NNPP will give them a much better alternative.
Among other things, Mailantarki said:
“Glory be to God for the successes being recorded by the NNPP every day. This is as a result of the good manifestos of the party. That is why more people are trooping to join. Together, we can do it and have a new Gombe State come 2023.”
