Senator Sulaiman Abdulrahman Kawu Sumaila has begin consultation with his constituents to decide his fate on whether to return to the All Progressives Congress or not.

Reacting to a recent call by the APC leaders from Kano South Senatorial District, Senator Sumaila said he had embarked on rigorous consultations with constituents and other stakeholders.

“It is true the APC leaders from my district have called on me to return to APC. The leaders took the advantage of the internal crisis in my party; New Nigeria Peoples Party which factionalized the party.

“And I am sure they are targeting me because they knew my political strength and commitment in politics. So, when the call persist, i have started consulting my constituents and all relevant stakeholders.

“I am into politics because of my people and whatever situation I found myself, I will let them decide my fate. So, even this issue, I will not decide it by myself, I will rather allow them to decide.

“Whatever decision my constituents take, I will abide by it because in politics consultation and openness are critical. So, one thing I can aşure you is that I will not decode my fate alone and whatever my constituents decode, I will go by it.” He concluded.

An aide to former President Muhammadu Buhari, Bashir Ahmad, has expressed the readiness of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to welcome Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso back into the party. Ahmad made this statement on his verified Facebook page, sparking discussions within Nigeria’s political circles.

In his post, Ahmad stated, *“We will gladly welcome Sen. Rabi’u Kwankwaso and his people into our great party, the APC.”This declaration comes amidst growing speculation about Kwankwaso’s potential return to the APC, a party he played a significant role in forming ahead of the 2015 general elections during his tenure as Governor of Kano State.

Kwankwaso, who is currently the national leader of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), has remained a prominent figure in Nigerian politics. His possible return to the APC is seen by many as a strategic move that could reshape the political landscape, particularly in Kano State, where he wields considerable influence.

Ahmad’s statement has fueled debates among political analysts and party members, with some viewing Kwankwaso’s return as a boost to the APC’s strength in the region. Others, however, question the implications of such a move for the NNPP and its supporters.

As the political climate heats up, all eyes are on Senator Kwankwaso to see whether he will heed the call and rejoin the party he once helped build.

The Chairmen of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and their Secretaries from Kano South Senatorial District have called on Senator Sulaiman Abdulrahman Kawu Sumaila to return to APC.

Speaking on behalf of the 16 APC Chairmen, their secretaries and ward leaders, the APC Chairman of Albasu Local Government, Alhaji Iliya Jibrin Hungu, said the call became necessary considering the value Sen. Sumaila would add to the party if returned.

Hungu added that “if Sen. Sumaila succumbs to our plea and returns to APC, no any other party will shine in Kano south, just as the man will unite the party members in the district.

“We knew the capacity and value of Sen. Sumaila in Kano politics. Though he is not a card carrying member of the APC, yet the man extends his hands of fellowship to all irrespective of their party affiliation.

“This is the kind of politician we need in APC. We are therefore, appealing to our serving and former APC state lawmakers from Kano south, APC caucus, APC National Chairman Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, Senator Barau Jibrin and the APC state chairman Alhaji Abdullahi Abbas to help us in pacifying Sen. Sumaila to consider our plea.

“We have confidence that Sen. Sumaila will play a greater role in promoting APC in Kano. We really missed the man when he left the party and we are calling on him to return and join us to promote the party together, Hungu said.

The chairman explained that APC needs committed politicians like Sen. Sumaila who always devote their energy and resources for the well-being of their constituents.

He attested that “Sen. Sumaila has no match in Kano south. We really need the man back into the APC. We will be happy if the Senator accept to return to the party.”
