Those defecting to APC from NNPP are ineffective in political arena – Rano
Abubakar Adamu Rano, Managing Director of Kano State Radio, has criticized members of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) who have defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC), describing them as “ineffective” in the political arena.
Rano stated this in an interview with Kadaura24, a Kano based online paper.
He said, “If you observe, all those whom Barau Jibrin claims to have recruited from NNPP Kwankwasiyya are not useful; they are incapable of achieving anything politically when election time comes.”
He emphasized that Senator Jibrin has been unable to attract the core youth members of Kwankwasiyya.
“Kwankwasiyya is fundamentally a youth movement, not for the kind of ineffective individuals that Barau Jibrin is bringing in,” he said.
Rano further revealed that Senator Jibrin would struggle to enlist prominent Kwankwasiyya youth leaders.
He said, “Do you think Barau can approach our vibrant youth leaders like Salisu Yahya Hotoro or Muhammad Kosawa? He wouldn’t even dare.”
He also advised Senator Jibrin to scrutinize those introducing defectors to him, suggesting that they might be exploiting him.
Rano further expressed confidence in Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf’s prospects for re-election in 2027.
“Our governor will win the 2027 election with majority votes,” he concluded.
Recall that last week Abbas Sani Abbas, the recently dismissed Commissioner for Rural and Community Development in Kano State, left the ruling NNPP and joined the opposition All Progressives Congress, APC.

“Jail David Mark” as ADC’s Internal Crisis Deepens: Hon Success Opara Threatens Action Against David Mark
Abuja, Nigeria – Tensions within the African Democratic Congress (ADC) reached a boiling point as Hon Success Opara, a high-ranking party official, warned that she would not hesitate to send former Senate President David Mark to jail if she were the judge handling the party’s internal litigation cases.
Opara’s statement comes in response to allegations that Mark and the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) failed to adhere to the ADC’s constitution.
“I’ll jail David Mark if I’m the Judge handling the ADC party internal litigation cases, citing how David Mark and the NEC were not able to adhere to what is written in the constitution of the ADC,” Opara said.
The internal strife has led to a flurry of court cases, with various factions vying for control of the party. Opara’s remarks underscore the deepening divisions within the ADC and raise questions about the party’s future.
The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has announced the postponement of the proposed nationwide voter revalidation exercise until after the 2027 General Election.
This follows a meeting with the Resident Electoral Commissioners, RECs, on Friday, April 10.
A statement signed by INEC’s National Commissioner, Chairman, Informationa and Voter Education Committee, Mohammed Kudu Haruna, said
“the voter revalidation exercise is a critical component of the Commission’s mandate to maintain a credible and up-to-date National Register of Voters.
It is designed to verify and review existing voter records, ensure the accuracy of personal data, eliminate duplicate and ineligible entries, and strengthen the overall integrity of the voter register.
The exercise also aims to provide an opportunity for registered voters to confirm their details and make necessary corrections where required.
INEC remains committed to the conduct of free, fair, credible, and inclusive elections.”
Following the just conducted ADC Congress, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Ideato South Local Government Area, Imo State, has announced its new leadership team. The team, led by Chairman Hon. Eze Chijioke, includes:
– Chairman: Hon. Eze Chijioke
– Secretary: Chief Duru Maurice
– Youth Leader: Mr. Obinwanne Okwara
– Woman Leader: Mrs. Anueyiagu Ogechi
– Organizing Secretary: Hon. Godian Egemba
The team is expected to lead the party to victory in future elections.
