APC Leaders in Kano Accuse Officials of NDC Support

Leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Albasu Local Government Area, Kano State, have accused Hon Musa Tahir Hungu, the member representing Albasu state constituency, and council Chairman Garba Aliyu Hungu of supporting NDC Kano South senatorial candidate Kassim Ibrahim Bataiya. The APC members submitted a petition to Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf and the party’s State Working Committee, seeking disciplinary action against the two officials for alleged anti-party activities.

They claimed that Hungu and Hungu were undermining the interests of the APC and its senatorial candidate, Senator Kawu Sumaila. The petition, signed by over 300 party officials, called for an investigation into the allegations.

The petitioners also alleged that some local government officials participated in NDC activities and that the Albasu chairman facilitated a town hall for Bataiya's campaign. They expressed concerns over the distribution of government empowerment programs, claiming benefits were diverted to NDC loyalists, and highlighted discrepancies in transportation support for party members to rallies.
