2027: Kwankwaso’s ally, Abdullahi dumps NDC for APC

Kabiru Abdullahi, a long-time supporter of Rabiu Kwankwaso, the NDC vice-presidential candidate, has recently switched allegiance to the All Progressives Congress, APC. In a letter to the party chairman of Kofar Ruwa Ward in Dala Local Government Area of Kano State, Abdullahi announced his resignation from the NDC. Abdullahi explained that he was motivated by years of unmet expectations within the party and his desire to be respected more.

He expressed his intention to support President Bola Tinubu’s re-election campaign on the APC ticket. Abdullahi highlighted that his long-standing relationship with Kwankwaso had not yielded the political recognition and benefits he anticipated, acknowledging the NDC for the opportunity to serve but declaring his withdrawal from the party took immediate effect.

His defection occurred after he had previously defended Kwankwaso amid a political controversy in Kano State.
