The Governor of Kano State, Abba Yusuf, has officially rejoined the All Progressives Congress.

Yusuf defected to the ruling party on Monday at the Coronation Hall of the Kano Government House.

He was made received into the party by former National Chairman of the APC and ex-Kano State governor, Abdullahi Ganduje; the Deputy President of the Senate; the Senator representing Kano South, Senator Barau Jibrin; the Minister of State for Housing and Urban Development, Yusuf Ata; and other party leaders.

The governor said his return to the APC was anchored on the need to work more closely with the Federal Government under the leadership of President Bola Tinubu.

Recall that Yusuf, who was elected on the platform of the New Nigeria Peoples Party in 2023, reigned from the party alongside several members of the Kano State House of Assembly and the House of Representatives.
