No fewer than 500 members of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) from Fagge and Ungogo Local Government Areas of Kano State have defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The Managing Director of the Hadejia-Jamโare River Basin Development Authority, Rabiu Bichi, received the defectors on Wednesday.
He said their move reflected the growing confidence in President Bola Tinubuโs leadership and APCโs progressive vision.
Bichi stated that APCโs development-oriented policies were attracting Nigerians, citing the defection of some governors as a testament to the partyโs strength.
He assured the new members of equal opportunities and integration into APC, saying that no member would be marginalised.
Bichi highlighted APC-led governmentโs visionary policies on food security and economic growth, insisting that Hadejia-Jamโare River Basinโs modern irrigation techniques aligned with Tinubuโs food security agenda.
The former APC National Chairman, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje, represented by the Kano State APC Chairman, Alhaji Abdullahi Abbas, commended the defectors for joining APC.
The Kano Central APC Chairman, Alhaji Shehuย Ungogo, said Tinubuโs policies had boosted Nigeriaโs economy, restoring public confidence in APC.
The defectors cited APCโs developmental strides and commitment to improving Nigeriansโ lives as reasons for their move. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
