Earlier, speaking to delegates, Governor Sani described the congress as “a powerful affirmation of the APC’s identity as a truly democratic and grassroots-driven political party,” stressing that leadership is earned through transparent processes rather than seniority.

He also welcomed new entrants into the party, including Governors Abba Kabir Yusuf of Kano State and Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State, calling their defection “momentous” for the party’s national strength. 

Sani highlighted national reforms under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, citing progress in agriculture, energy, social interventions, and infrastructure, while emphasizing the benefits for Kaduna and the North-West.

Meanwhile, the newly appointed Zonal publicity Secretary of APC, North West zone, Musa Mailafiya Mada, has said the party will maintain its electoral value in next year’s general election.

Speaking in an interview with Tribune Online, he said the party is still very strong, even stronger than it was.

“We don’t have any opposition in the zone. It is a complete APC, no more, no less. Let us wait for a time, he declared.
