Former Kano State governor and immediate past national chairman of the APC, Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje organised the four-day consultation meeting with party leaders from all the 44 local government areas of the state.
The meeting, held at Ganduje’s residence in Kano, concluded with a session with APC stakeholders from the Kano North Senatorial District, including local government chairmen, caucus members and representatives of key party structures.
It marked the final phase of a series of engagements aimed at strengthening the party ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Ganduje said the consultations were intended to deepen internal cohesion, restore trust and reaffirm the party’s loyalty to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as preparation for the 2027 polls gathers momentum.
“The purpose of this meeting over the last three days has been to ensure complete unity in our party from top to bottom and to reaffirm our solidarity with the Federal Government under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” he said.
He stated that the delegates and executives demonstrated strong commitment to sustaining the APC’s dominance in Kano and across the country.
Ganduje also revealed that party leaders from all 44 LGAs had sought approval to commence public endorsements of President Tinubu as the APC’s sole presidential candidate for 2027.
“We have resolved that all local governments in the state should gather their party officials, stakeholders and supporters to make a public pronouncement endorsing President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as our sole candidate for 2027,” he said.
As part of efforts to revitalise the party’s structure, Ganduje directed that all APC offices across the 44 LGAs and 484 wards be reopened, made accessible and fully operational to enhance grassroots mobilisation.
He further announced plans to engage ICT personnel in preparation for the APC’s upcoming digital registration exercise, noting that Kano previously recorded the highest number of registered party members nationwide.
“Each local government is to provide three computer experts who will be trained at the state headquarters and deployed for the e-registration exercise. We assure you that, once again, Kano will produce the highest number of registered party members,” he said.
Ganduje also urged officials to intensify mobilisation for the ongoing Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) continuous voter registration, encouraging eligible citizens, particularly new voters, to register ahead of the elections.
