Chairmen of the party in the North West region arrived at the decision after their meeting in Kaduna on Tuesday.

The chairmen said they took the “unanimous decision” due to Ganduje’s “immense contribution” to the party as a two-term governor.

The statement reads: “We the state chairmen of the ruling All Progressives Congress APC, from the seven states comprising Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Sokoto, Kebbi, Zamfara and Jigawa that made up the Northwest geopolitical zone of the country rising from a meeting held in Kaduna on Tuesday. 25/07/2023, unanimously endorsed Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje as the National Chairman of the party.

“This decision followed the immense contributions made to the party by the two terms governor of the second most populous state in the nation, Kano, especially at the 2023 general election which saw the emergence of our most enviable President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR as President.

“It is on record that Dr. Ganduje sojourned the whole country making contacts and convincing Nigerians on what Nigeria and Nigerians stand to benefit should Tinubu emerge as president.

“We as leaders of the ruling party in our respective states have also gone through every step of good reasons and came to the conclusion and conviction that based on qualification, wealth of experience, maturity, steadfastness, commitment and resilience. Ganduje is the best person for the exalted office of chairman of the party, not only from the zone but in the country.”
