The declaration came during a stakeholders’ meeting convened by Senator Barau on Saturday in Kano, bringing together party leaders, elected officials, and grassroots politicians to consolidate unity and plan strategies for the next elections.
According to Ismail Mudashir, Special Adviser to the Deputy President of the Senate on Media and Publicity, Senator Barau said the meeting aimed to strengthen internal cohesion and solidify Kano North as a stronghold of the APC.
“We are united and focused. Kano North will stand firmly behind President Tinubu and Governor Abba Yusuf. Our structure is intact, and we will work tirelessly to ensure their victories. By God’s grace, we will deliver landslide votes for President Tinubu, Governor Abba, and all other APC candidates next year,” he stated.
Senator Barau also announced the donation of 26 cars and 141 motorcycles to local government chairmen, vice-chairmen, councillors, and secretaries across 13 LGAs of Kano North. Cars will be given to chairmen and vice-chairmen, while motorcycles will go to councillors and secretaries.
