The Kano State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has firmly rejected any alliance with the African Democratic Congress (ADC) or participation in any political coalition ahead of the 2027 general elections.
At a press conference held on Thursday in Gidauniya, Kano, the state PDP chairman, Yusuf Ado Kibiya, made the party’s position clear, stating that the Kano PDP remains fully committed to its parent party and will not support any breakaway group or alternative platform.
“We categorically distance the Kano State chapter from the breakaway members who have formed a coalition under the African Democratic Congress. This coalition does not represent the interests of the PDP, and we urge our members to remain focused on our party’s objectives,” Kibiya declared.
The chairman, flanked by members of the state executive and delegates from all 44 local government areas, stressed that the PDP in Kano had successfully conducted internal elections at ward, local government, and state levels. He described the outcome as a testament to the party’s strength, internal cohesion, and commitment to democratic ideals.
“This achievement marks a significant step in our readiness to provide focused leadership and strong representation for our members ahead of 2027,” he said.
Kibiya noted that the Kano PDP has completed grassroots mobilisation and realignment efforts, ensuring that members remain active and aligned with the party’s vision and objectives.
He reassured the party’s national leadership of Kano PDP’s absolute loyalty and support, stating, “Our commitment to the party remains unwavering, and we are ready to support all directives and strategies aimed at electoral victory.”
The party also reiterated its resolve to back only PDP-sponsored candidates, adding that it remains a united and formidable force poised to deliver quality governance and represent the interests of Kano residents.
Kibiya concluded by emphasizing that the Kano PDP will not compromise its identity or join any political coalition, particularly one formed by defectors or parallel movements.
