APC Strengthens Grip in Kano as NNPP Figures Defect to Ruling Party

The All Progressives Congress (APC) gains ground in Kano as Governor's aide, Umar Bala Haruna, and NNPP Ward Chief, Muhammad Hussaini, defect to the APC. This move is seen as a boost for the ruling party ahead of future political contests.

Jibrin Barau, Deputy Senate President, received the defectors in Abuja. The defection is attributed to Barau's leadership style and the APC's people-oriented political vision.

The shift in political loyalty underscores the growing confidence in the APC-led administration.
