Former Kano State governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje is set to become the new National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), according to reports.
This move is seen as a way to strengthen the bloc of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), which produced former President Muhammadu Buhari.
Ganduje’s nomination as party chairman was discussed during a meeting with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and four governors elected on the platform of the APC.
The official announcement of Ganduje as the new chairman is expected to be made at the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting.
Additionally, it is rumored that Senator Ajibola Basiru from Osun State will replace the former party’s national secretary, Iyiola Omisore.
A source said: “President Tinubu has settled for the former Kano state governor Ganduje to replace Senator Abdullahi Adamu as the party’s national chairman.
“The President had listed Ganduje as one of the nominees for ministerial appointment, but because of his trust and confidence in the former governor, President Tinubu has to change his mind and asked two governors (Governor Hope Uzodimma and the Kwara state governor) to persuade Ganduje into another assignment.
“The president also asked him (Ganduje) to nominate another person from Kano for the ministerial job. I can confirm to you that four serving governors of APC, including Imo and Kwara governors led the former governor Ganduje to a meeting with the President on Wednesday afternoon. The purpose of that meeting was for President Tinubu to brief Ganduje directly about the new assignment.”
