The All Progressive Congress Kano State chapter, has asked the party at the centre and the President-elect, Ahmed Bola Tinubu to support the candidature of Senator Barau Jibrin for Senate presidency.
The State APC Chairman, Alhaji Abdullahi Abbas, who made the call shortly after a crucial stakeholders meeting on Wednesday, noted that in the whole of these years that APC played significant role in making it to obtain Political Offices Positions, Senator Barau Jibrin was at the center of these achievements.
“The Party believes that Kano has done marvelously in making APC both at the center and in the state a darling and winning party, with many looking at it for securing their political positions.
Abbas said that Kano North, where Senator Barau Jibrin came from, has never allowed any party to capture the area because of the influence of the Senator.
“Significantly, Kano tremendously gave APC victory in 2015, 2019 and now 2023, with the state producing the highest votes across the Federation, but, we had never requested for any serious position at the center”.
“In the last general elections of 2023, Kano gave over 500,000 votes, the highest in the entire country. Therefore it will be pertinent if Kano is allowed and supported to produce the next Senate President”, Abbas said.
The party chairman, appealed to the National Leadership of APC, the President-elect and the elected Senators to overwhelmingly support Barau Jibrin to become the next Senate President.
