Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano State have unanimously adopted President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the party’s sole presidential candidate for the 2027 general elections and pledged a donation of N50 million towards the purchase of his expression of interest and nomination forms.

The decision was reached at a high-level stakeholders’ meeting held at the Coronation Hall of the Kano Government House, where party leaders reaffirmed their commitment to the continuity of the president’s leadership.

This was contained in a press release issued by Mustapha Muhammad, the Chief Press Secretary to the Kano State Governor.

A motion for the adoption of President Tinubu was moved by Rabiu Sulaiman Bichi and received unanimous support from stakeholders present at the meeting.

Speaking during the session, the Kano State APC Chairman, Umar Haruna Doguwa, disclosed that the state chapter had initially intended to purchase the nomination forms outright but resolved instead to contribute financially in support of the president’s candidature.

“We have agreed to contribute the sum of N50 million towards the purchase of the expression of interest and nomination forms for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” he said.

The stakeholders noted that the endorsement reflects their confidence in the president’s leadership and ongoing reforms, as well as their collective resolve to ensure the party’s success in the 2027 general elections.

The meeting also reaffirmed the endorsement of Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf as the APC’s sole governorship candidate in Kano State, as part of efforts to strengthen unity and cohesion within the party.

The Kano State Government commends the stakeholders for their unwavering support and calls on all party members to remain united in advancing the collective interest of the party and then develop the state.
