Kano South APC Leaders Urge Sen. Sumaila To Return To Party
By Abdullahi Yusuf
Chairmen and Secretaries of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the Kano South Senatorial District have called on Senator Sulaiman Kawu Sumaila to return to the party.
Alhaji Iliya Jibrin Hungu,
the APC Chairman of Albasu Local Government Area, made the call on behalf of the 16 Chairmen, secretaries and ward leaders of the party at a news conference in Albasu town on Tuesday.
Hungu said the call became necessary considering the value Sen. Sumaila would add if he rejoins the party.
“There is no doubt that Sen. Sumaila will add immense value to our great party if answers our call and returns to the APC, and will assist in uniting members of the party in the zone.
“We know the capacity and value of Sen. Sumaila in Kano politics. Though he is not a card carrying member of the APC, the man extends his hands of fellowship to all, irrespective of their party affiliations.
“This is the kind of politician we need in the APC. We are therefore, appealing to our serving and former APC state lawmakers from Kano south, the APC caucus, the APC National Chairman, Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, the Deputy President of the Senate, 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 State. We really miss him and we are calling on him to return and join us in promoting 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.
“Sen. Sumaila has no match in Kano south. We really need the man back into the APC. We will be happy if the Senator accepts to return to the party,” he further appealed.
