Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of Kano State has rejected the invitation of the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, to him and other members of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) to join the APC.
Governor Yusuf, speaking through his Media Adviser, Sunusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, was cited to have asserted: ““We heard that he is begging for the Governor to join the APC, what is surprising is Ganduje as a former governor and former Deputy Governor knows better than anyone the right channel to send a message to a sitting Governor.
“His Excellency the Governor (Abba Kabir Yusuf) does not have plans to leave his party and will not leave the party.
“Changing a political party is like changing a house, you just cannot wake up, pack your bags and say I have left my party. There are things to be done before you decide to change your house.”
