The All Progressives Congress, APC, in Kano State has reiterated its readiness to welcome Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf into the party, ahead of his planned defection from the New Nigeria People’s Party, NNPP.
The Kano State Chairman of the APC, Prince Abdullahi Abbas, stated this while reacting to recent political developments, describing the anticipated move as guided by unity, reconciliation, and the collective interest of Kano State.
Speaking on behalf of the party’s national leader, former chairman and immediate-past Governor of Kano State, Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, Abbas stressed that the call for Governor Yusuf to join the APC is not rooted in political rivalry, but in a sincere desire to build a more united and prosperous Kano State.
“This is about unity, reconciliation, and moving Kano state forward,” Abbas said. “The APC is ready to receive Governor Yusuf with open arms so that, together, we can combine our strengths for the progress of the state.”
He explained that upon his formal entry, Governor Yusuf and other NNPP stalwarts, including but not limited to, members of National Assembly, State Assembly, State Executive Council, Local Government Chairmen, Elected Councilors, political appointees and party faithfuls would be received into the APC under Dr. Ganduje’s leadership, in an atmosphere of mutual respect and collective responsibility.
