Former Director-General of Tinubu Support Groups, Hon. Abdulmumin Kofa Jibrin on Sunday declared his return to the All Progressives Congress and declared his support for President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.

Before over 2000 Ulamas who offered prayers for him on his return to his former party, Jibrin in his home town Kofa, Kano State renounced him membership of NNPP and the Kwankwasiya Movement led by former Kano State Governor, Engr. Rabiu Kwankwaso.

Speaking on his return to the governing All Progressives Congress, Hon. Jibrin said:

“In a show of solidarity, I was warmly received by thousands of my constituents in my hometown of Kofa,  Bebeji, Kano. The gathering resolved to leave the NNPP/Kwankwasiyya, join the APC, and endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for a second term in office.

“Earlier, about 2,000 Ulamas from my constituency offered special prayers for the President and peaceful coexistence, progress, and development of Kiru/Bebeji, Kano, and Nigeria at large.”
