He disclosed that Buhari has lost his principles and bearings, hence he parted ways with the president.

He was elected in 2011 to represent Kaduna North Senatorial District under the defunct party.
Addressing El-Rufai’s mockery: Baba-Ahmed stated that the Labour Party was making steady progress in the North.
He appealed to Nigerians to disregard the outburst of Kaduna State Governor, Nasir el-Rufai, who recently mocked the LP that they could not mobilise 200 people in Kaduna State for a walk.
“Even in this room, just before I stepped in here, I had shaken hands with over 200 persons,” he said, while adding that the governor’s outburst was quite unreasonable and an unworthy of a serious response.
