Yusuf Babangida, a lawmaker representing Gwale Local Government in the Kano State House of Assembly, has re-joined the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Babangida who previously belonged to the New Nigeria People Party (NNPP) was considered by Rabiu Kwankwaso, the NNPP’s presidential candidate, as one of his closest political allies.
In a letter of resignation dated January 7th and addressed to the NNPP chairman in the Sani Mainagge ward of the Gwale Local Government Area, Mr Babangida said his decision to leave the party was motivated by the NNPP’s flagrant contempt for internal democracy.
