HAPPENING NOW: The Ancient City Of Kano On Fire, As Rabiu Kwankwaso Dumps APC, Shocks ALL Party Leaders

It was shocking, as Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, dumped the Kano State Chapter of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, by staying away from the State Congress, currently taking place at the indoor Hall of the Sani Abacha Stadium, Kano.

Present at the APC State Congress were Governor Abdullahi Ganduje, Federal and State Legislators, political office holders, and party leaders.

Recall, that Ganduje was the Deputy Governor to Kwankwaso, until the end of May 2015, when he stepped up as Governor.

At the State Congress, 15 persons loyal to Ganduje were presented unopposed, for the various sSate party offices.

Presenting the 15 nominees, the Chairman of the Committee organising the Congress, Nadu Yahya, said the Committee gave equal opportunity to every party member, to contest for the party seats.

The unopposed nominees include the current Acting Chairman of the party, Abdullahi Abbas, who wants to take the seat in substantive capacity; his Deputy, Shehu Maigari; and current Secretary, Ibrahim Sarina.

There is heavy presence of security operatives outside and within the Congress venue, with the delegates and other participants thoroughly screened with metal detectors, before being allowed into the stadium.
