PDP dissolves Kano executive, appoints caretaker

The National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has dissolved the Kano State Working Committee (SWC). Dr Bello Gambo Bichi, the removed State Chairman of the PDP in Kano, accepted his removal as a sacrifice for a better PDP. The dissolution took effect immediately upon the issuance of a letter dated September 24, 2026, signed by PDP National Organising Secretary Hon.

Umar M. Bature. The decision to dissolve the State Working Committee was based on preconditions set by former state governorship candidate Dalhatu, who also sacrificed his candidacy for Muhammad Abacha. The dissolution only affected the State Working Committee, leaving the party's Ward and Local Government Area (LGA) working committees intact.

The North-West Caretaker Committee will now oversee the affairs of the Kano State chapter until a new State Working Committee is elected. Dr Bichi stated that he wholeheartedly accepted his removal as part of the agreed-upon conditions, ensuring a better future for the PDP.
