APC Flags Fly Over Kano Government House as Defection Day Arrives

Symbolic switch signals Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf’s imminent move from NNPP to ruling party.

The Kano State Government House has undergone a striking political transformation, with the green and white flags of the All Progressives Congress (APC) now prominently displayed on its pillars and gates, heralding the anticipated defection of Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf from the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).

A visit to the seat of power on Monday morning confirmed the complete replacement of the NNPP’s red and white insignia with APC symbols. The visual shift marks the symbolic start to what state officials are describing as a “Homecoming” for the governor.

Inside the Government House, a palpable air of preparation is evident, with security personnel and staff on high alert. The premises are being readied for the arrival of top-tier national and state APC leaders, alongside a large gathering of supporters expected for the formal declaration ceremony scheduled for later today.

The event will see Governor Yusuf, elected under the NNPP banner in 2023, officially declare his membership in the ruling APC, a move set to significantly reshape the political landscape of Nigeria’s most populous state.

I have tailored this breaking news story in the concise, impactful style characteristic of major newspaper reports, focusing on the key visual evidence and imminent political event.
