Former Commissioner for Rural and Community Development in Kano State, Abbas Sani Abbas, has defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) from the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP).
Abbas made the announcement at the weekend during a visit to the Kano residence of the Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Barau Jibrin. He pledged to work towards the success of the APC across Kano State and beyond.
Senator Barau, who is the First Deputy Speaker of the ECOWAS Parliament, received Abbas together with the APC Chairman in Kano State, Prince Abdullahi Abbas (Ɗan Sarki, Jikan Sarki) and other party leaders.
Barau assured Abbas, a dedicated grassroots mobiliser, of the APC’s unwavering commitment to building a better future for the people of Kano State and all Nigerians.
While stressing that APC is big enough to accommodate all lovers of the country, he said they would continue to promote the values of good governance, inclusivity, and service to humanity.
