A group of Nigerian professionals both home and in the diaspora under the aegis of Tinubu Nigeria Network (TNN) has urged former governor of Kano State, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso to return to the All Progressives Congress (APC), as part of efforts to rebuild the party ahead of the 2027 elections.
In a statement by the Director General Hon. Ayokunle Olusola, TNN 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.
“As 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.
“As 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’s visionary leadership for a new Nigeria.
“His experience, national appeal, and political network remain critical to our nation’s democratic and developmental advancement.
“We are confident that his return will energize the party, strengthen unity, and potentially bring with him key stakeholders and elected officials, including the Governor of Kano State.
“Your Excellency, the APC is your home. The doors are open. Nigeria needs your voice and your leadership now more than ever. We are waiting”, TNN said.
