“Today, we are delighted and excited to welcome this hardworking and well-known young politician to our party, Alin Kano. He has been an ardent member of the PDP until today when he joined us.

With this kind of development, we are becoming stronger every day. We have known him for a long time and know his potential and expertise. As you can see, he already swung into action, as he was accompanied by the leadership of the APC in his own LGA,” he said.

Declaring his decamping to the APC, Alhaji Abdullahi Alin Kano said Senator Barau had been his role model and admirer for over 30 years.

“I am here at the office of the Deputy President of the Senate to announce my decamping from PDP to the APC. My decision is because of the tremendous projects, interventions, and support the Deputy President of the Senate is doing in Kano and the entire North,” he said.

Present during the event are; the Minority Leader of the Kano State House of Assembly, Hon. Labaran Abdul Madari, Special Adviser to the President on Community Engagement, Northwest, Abdullahi Tanko Yakasai, among others.
