Obi, Amaechi , other political heavyweights storm Kano as Kwankwazo joins ADC
..Charges His Supporters To Vote For Change
Former Kano State Governor, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has formally joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC), calling on his supporters across the country to register with the party and participate actively in the electoral process.
Kwankwaso made the call on Monday at his Miller Road residence in Kano while addressing party leaders and supporters shortly after receiving his ADC membership card.
He described the occasion as historic and thanked Almighty Allah for witnessing what he termed a significant political turning point.
“I am very happy today that I have collected my membership card for the ADC. By taking this step, I urge all our supporters to go back and immediately register with the party,” he said.
The former presidential candidate also welcomed top ADC officials and other political figures who were in Kano for the event.
Kwankwaso stressed the importance of full political participation, urging supporters not only to register with the ADC but also with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs).
“Registering with the party is not enough. You must also register with INEC to ensure you can vote for change in the next general elections,” he added.
He noted that the decision to join the ADC was a collective one taken in consultation with his political associates and supporters, including members of the Kwankwasiyya movement.
Among the prominent personalities at the event, were former Senate President and ADC National Chairman, David Mark; ADC National Secretary and former Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola; former Anambra State governor, Peter Obi and former Sokoto State governor, Senator Aminu Waziri Tambuwal.
Others are ; former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi; Senator Dino Melaye; former APC National Chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun; and former Imo State Governor, Emeka Ihedioha.
Kwankwaso’s defection to the ADC is expected to reshape political dynamics, particularly in Kano State, where he commands a strong grassroots following.
