Yilwatda stated this during a courtesy visit to Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, where he expressed satisfaction with the massive turnout of party leaders and supporters at the meeting.
According to the statement issued on Monday by the governor’s spokesperson, Sunusi Bature, the APC national chairman explained that the 60/40 formula was designed to ensure effective participation of all stakeholders in party affairs and governance, particularly as the party expands with new entrants.
He said he was deeply impressed by the number of people who attended the meeting, describing the turnout as a clear demonstration of unity, enthusiasm and commitment among APC members in Kano.
Yilwatda added that the large gathering was a positive signal that could strengthen support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and boost the party’s prospects ahead of the next general elections.
The APC chairman also commended the party’s 2023 governorship candidate in Kano State, Alhaji Yusuf Gawuna, and Deputy Senate President, Senator Barau Jibrin, for setting aside personal ambitions and aligning with the governor’s vision for the party in the state.
He further praised the immediate past national chairman of the party, Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, for his leadership and contributions to the growth and cohesion of the APC in Kano State.
In his response, Governor Yusuf thanked the APC leadership for the visit and their sustained support for unity and peace in Kano.
He reaffirmed his commitment to working closely with party stakeholders to ensure Kano remains united, prosperous and aligned with the Federal Government’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
Governor Yusuf also noted that the turnout and show of solidarity at the meeting were clear indications that APC members in Kano State were ready to work collectively for the party’s progress and the state’s development.
