Senator Barau Jibrin Strengthens APC with Influx of Defectors from NNPP

In a significant political development, Senator Barau Jibrin, the Deputy Senate President, has been instrumental in bolstering the strength of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano State. Over the past weeks, he has been tirelessly receiving defectors from the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) and other opposition parties, both in Abuja and his hometown, Kano. This wave of defections marks a major shift in the political landscape, with many former Kwankwasiyya members pledging their allegiance to the APC.

The APC in Kano has seen a considerable influx of defectors, a testament to the persuasive efforts of Senator Barau. Among those who have recently joined the APC are prominent figures like Askarawa Kwankwasiyya from Dawakin Kudu Local Government Area and Alhaji Aminu Ibrahim Gogori, the former chairman of Bagwai Local Government Area. These defections are a clear indication of the growing influence of the APC under Senator Barau’s leadership.

Senator Barau Jibrin has been praised by both national and state APC stakeholders for his relentless dedication to expanding the party’s base. His efforts are seen as timely and strategic, especially as the political climate in Kano continues to evolve. Despite some resistance from within the APC ranks, there is a growing consensus that Senator Barau’s actions are in the best interest of the party.

It is disheartening that some members of the APC have raised concerns about the ongoing reception of defectors from the NNPP. However, it is widely recognized that once a Kwankwasiyya member defects to the APC, their return to the NNPP is unlikely to be accepted. This reality underscores the importance of embracing these new members, who have chosen to align themselves with the APC’s vision and values.

Senator Barau’s efforts should be viewed as a positive development for the APC, as it strengthens the party’s position in Kano, one of the most politically significant states in Nigeria. His continuous engagement with former opposition members is not only expanding the party’s base but also uniting former adversaries under the APC umbrella.

APC members in Kano should recognize the significance of this moment and express gratitude for the ongoing growth of the party. The APC remains the largest political party in Africa, a home for all who seek to contribute to its success. Those who have defected can be assured that they have made the right choice, and Insha Allah, they will not regret their decision.

As Senator Barau Jibrin continues to welcome defectors, the APC is poised to become even stronger, more united, and better prepared to face the challenges ahead. Welcome back to the APC, the political home where every defector can find a place to contribute to a greater Nigeria.
