Joining the All Progressives Congress (APC) holds promises of familial bonds as Abdullahi Ganduje extends an invitation likening himself to a grandfather to Rabiu Kwankwaso, potential 2023 presidential candidate of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP).
In Kano, Ganduje addressed APC supporters, emphasising the significance of party allegiance and the inclusive nature of APC membership.
He highlighted, “Regardless of your status, once you join APC, you become part of our family.”
Ganduje’s assertion underscores the welcoming ethos of the APC, positioning it as a political home where individuals find belonging and support.
Ganduje underscores the inclusive nature of APC membership, portraying it as a political family where every member is valued and embraced.
By extending the metaphor of familial ties, Ganduje sends a conciliatory message to Kwankwaso, potentially paving the way for political reconciliation and collaboration.
The invitation serves as a strategic move, aimed at consolidating support within the APC ranks while also reaching out to potential allies from other political spheres.
The reported efforts of President Bola Tinubu to reconcile Ganduje and Kwankwaso hint at broader political manoeuvres aimed at coalition-building and strategic alliances in the run-up to the presidential polls.
As political dynamics continue to unfold, Ganduje’s invitation stands as a testament to the fluid nature of Nigerian politics, where alliances are forged, and rivalries reshaped in the pursuit of power and influence.
