Kano NDC Members Eye Return to APC After Visit to Governor

WHY IT MATTERS

The potential defection could reduce the NDC’s influence in Kano and give the APC a decisive advantage in the forthcoming senatorial race.

What happened

In a move that could reshape Kano’s political landscape, several high‑profile members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) are reportedly planning to rejoin the All Progressives Congress (APC). The shift follows a solidarity visit by the political team of NDC’s Kano Central senatorial candidate, Nasiru Yusuf Gawuna, to Governor Abba. The visit, reported on Tuesday night, has prompted loyalists within the NDC to consider realigning with the APC, potentially weakening the NDC’s foothold in the state. The decision comes ahead of the upcoming senatorial election, where party strength will be critical. If the members follow through, the NDC may lose key support, giving the APC a stronger position in Kano Central.
