National chairman of All Progressives Congress, Abdullahi Ganduje, has urged Governor Abba Yusuf of Kano to dump the New Nigeria People Party (NNPP) and join the APC.
Ganduje, the immediate past governor of Kano, made the appeal on Thursday during a stakeholders meeting in the state.
Ganduje said the APC had resolved to woo all other smaller parties into the fold.
Ganduje assured that the APC would provide enabling environment for Yusuf, a political godson of Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, and his supporters to enjoy peace and harmony in the APC.
“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 national level, why can’t we do it at state level,” Ganduje queried.
“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 [Governor Yusuf]. We promise to create 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,” the APC chairman added.
