​“The campaign must be driven by clear policy messages and a compelling vision that strengthens public trust in our party,” the Governor stated.

​Responding on behalf of the newly inaugurated team, the Director-General of the council, Engr. Abdullahi Tijjani Muhammad Gwarzo, assured the Governor of the council’s readiness to deliver on its mandate.

​ Gwarzo, a former Deputy Governor of Kano State and immediate-past Minister of State for Housing, expressed gratitude to Governor Yusuf for the trust reposed in the team.

He pledged that the council would leverage every legitimate strategy, grassroots mobilization, and effective coordination to achieve a decisive victory for the party.

​Under the newly constituted structure, Engr. Abdullahi Tijjani Muhammad Gwarzo serves as the Director-General, while Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, the Director-General of Media and Publicity at the Kano Government House, assumes the role of Council Secretary.

​The council has been categorized into specialized sub-directorates to streamline strategic mobilization, media engagements, and field operations ahead of the 2027 general elections.
