Rabiu Kwankwaso, a leading figure of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has officially welcomed Aminu Gwarzo, the immediate past Deputy Governor of Kano State, into the party.
Kwankwaso described Gwarzo’s entry as a significant boost to the party’s growing structure. He shared the announcement through his official X account on Monday, highlighting the importance of the defection for the opposition coalition.
“I heartily congratulate Comrade Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, the immediate past Deputy Governor of Kano State, on his decision to join the African Democratic Congress (ADC),” Kwankwaso wrote.
“The grand reception held yesterday in Gwarzo Town has not only strengthened our ranks with his wealth of experience, but has also injected fresh energy and renewed enthusiasm into the party. Welcome home, Your Excellency, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo.”
Gwarzo formally joined the ADC on Sunday during a well-attended event in Gwarzo Town, marking a notable shift from his former party, the New Nigerian Peoples Party (NNPP).
Kwankwaso’s message emphasizes the strategic advantage Gwarzo brings to the party, as ADC continues to expand its influence ahead of upcoming political contests.
