Former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has returned to Nigeria from vacation and is set to begin a series of consultations and high-level meetings focused on the evolving political landscape in Kano State.
Sources close to the former Kano State governor confirmed that Ganduje arrived in the country earlier this week and has since commenced engagements with key political stakeholders, party leaders, and associates. The consultations are expected to centre on recent political developments in Kano, including party realignments, internal party dynamics, and strategies ahead of future electoral contests.
Ganduje, a prominent political figure in Kano and the North-West region, is believed to be assessing the current situation within the APC in the state, as well as exploring avenues for strengthening party unity and influence. His meetings are also expected to involve discussions with traditional leaders, opinion shapers, and grassroots politicians.
Although details of the consultations remain largely private, political observers note that Ganduje’s return and renewed political activity could signal a strategic move to reassert influence in Kano politics amid shifting alliances and growing competition among major political actors.
Neither Ganduje nor his media aides have issued an official statement outlining the full scope of the meetings. However, insiders suggest that outcomes from the consultations may shape political decisions and alignments in Kano in the coming months.
Kano State remains one of Nigeria’s most politically significant states, and developments involving key figures such as Ganduje are closely watched both within and outside the state.
