bola tinubu-nuhu ribaduA national Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, yesterday described Former Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Chairman, Malam Nuhu Ribadu as “a friend and brother”.

Ribadu, the 2011 election presidential candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), one of the ‘legacy’ parties that fused together to form the APC, last week defected to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
