A group operating under the aegis of Tinubu Nigeria Network (TNN) has urged the former governor of Kano State, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, to return to the All Progressives Congress (APC) as part of efforts to strengthen the party ahead of the 2027 elections.
The director general of TNN, Hon. Ayokunle Olusola, in a statement in Lagos, described Kwankwaso as a distinguished public servant, whose tenure as Governor of Kano State, Senator of the Federal Republic, and Minister of Defence remains a model of progressive leadership.
TNN, a group of Nigerian professionals at home and in the diaspora, described Kwankwaso as one of the founding members of the APC.
鈥淎s a group that is committed to the Renewed Hope agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, it is on record that Dr. Kwankwaso is one of the founding fathers of the APC and his transformative policies, particularly in education and youth development, have left a lasting legacy in Kano and beyond.
鈥淎s one of the founding members of the APC and a committed progressive, we believe the time is ripe for Dr. Kwankwaso to reunite with the party and align with President Tinubu鈥檚 visionary leadership for a new Nigeria.
鈥淗is experience, national appeal, and political network remain critical to our nation鈥檚 democratic and developmental advancement.
