Abdullahi Ganduje, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has urged Kano Governor Abba Yusuf to defect from the All Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), which is now in power in the state, and join the opposition.
During Thursday’s meeting in Kano, Mr. Ganduje, a former state governor, declared that Kano will become a one-party state as a result of Mr. Yusuf joining the APC.
He claimed that the opposition party had decided to court all other smaller parties into joining the APC at the conclusion of the meeting.

Mr. Ganduje promised to create an atmosphere in the APC that would allow Mr. Yusuf and his followers to live in peace and harmony.
“We have achieved in wooing some governors to join APC. Very soon some governors will join our party. So, if we can do this at the national level, why can’t we do it at the state level?
“Our hands are wide open. We are appealing to those who like to join our party. In particular, we are inviting the governor of Kano state to dump his party, NNPP, and join APC.
“We are calling him. We promise to create an enabling environment for the governor of Kano State so that we make a solid, a very big followership.
“This is a reflection of our population since we are the most populous state in the federation,” Mr Ganduje said.
