Abdulaziz Ganduje Rejoins APC After NDC Stint
Abdulaziz Ganduje, son of former Kano State Governor Abdullahi Ganduje, officially rejoined the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Sunday after a three-month stint with the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NDC). The formal reception took place at the Ganduje Ward office in Dawakin Tofa Local Government Area, where he collected his membership card in the presence of party officials and supporters.
This move is seen as a reaffirmation of loyalty to the APC structure in Kano. Previously, Abdulaziz had joined the NDC and obtained a nomination form to contest the Dawakin Tofa/Tofa/Rimin Gado Federal Constituency seat, aligning himself with the Kwankwasiyya movement led by former Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, a rival of his father.
His return to the APC comes after the deadline for obtaining nomination forms had closed, making it a symbolic gesture rather than an immediate electoral bid. This action is viewed as a significant step in consolidating the Ganduje family's political base in preparation for the 2027 elections.
