He described the development as a “historic day” and expressed gratitude to supporters and party leaders who graced the grand event.
He welcomed and appreciated the delegation led by former Senate President, David Mark, alongside members of the party’s National Working Committee, for their role in the process.
Kwankwaso said the decision to join the party was taken collectively, noting that the move marked a significant step in his political journey.
“I am so happy today that I have collected my membership card of the ADC,” he said, urging supporters to immediately register with the party.
He further advised that party registration alone was insufficient, stressing the importance of enrolling with the Independent National Electoral Commission to be eligible to vote.
Kwankwaso noted that voter registration by the electoral body would commence in the coming days, urging his followers to take advantage of the opportunity.

“Registering with the party is only halfway. You must also register with INEC to ensure you can vote for change in the next general election,” he said.
The former Kano State governor and Minister of Defence reaffirmed his commitment to mobilising support for the party across the country.
