Former Kano State Governor and national leader of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has welcomed a new group of defectors from the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Madobi Local Government Area of Kano State into the NDC.
Kwankwaso received the defectors on Saturday, describing their decision to join the party as a significant boost to the NDC’s growing political strength ahead of future elections.
He assured the new members of equal treatment and meaningful participation in the affairs of the party, stressing that they would be fully integrated into its structure.
“I was delighted to receive a group of defectors from Madobi Local Government who have left the APC to join the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC),” Kwankwaso said.
“I warmly welcome them into our fold and assure them of fair and comfortable positions within our party.”
The former presidential candidate expressed confidence that the party would continue to expand its support base across the country, attributing its growth to unity and focus.
“We continue to grow stronger, free from major distractions,” he added.
The latest defections come amid ongoing political realignments across the country as parties intensify efforts to strengthen their structures ahead of the 2027 general elections.
