APC Takes Over Kano Government House as Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf Prepares to Defect
In a significant political development, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has taken over the Kano Government House as Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of the Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) prepares to defect to the APC. The APC flag was hoisted at the main gate of the Government House, signaling the imminent political shift.
Governor Yusuf held meetings with key figures like Bola Tinubu and announced his intention to join the APC following his resignation from the NNPP. This move comes after reports of disagreements within the NNPP, including demands for an automatic second-term ticket.
Yusuf, who had previously been a member of the APC in 2014, is now set to rejoin the party. His defection is expected to have significant implications for the political landscape in Kano State.
