Abdullahi Abbas Emerges Kano APC Chairman.

With 51 other executives, the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Kano State has elected Alhaji Abdullahi Abbas as the consensus party Chairman for a second term.

The party National Congress Committee Leader, Barrister Auwalu Abdullahi, leading other six members, announced after an exhaustive voting by 3,320 delegates that lasted for almost six hours, that despite a consensus arrangement, open door election was allowed.

The election was held in a crowded Sani Abacha Indoor Stadium with hundreds of delegates from the 44 local governments councils of the state in attendance.

A seven-man congress committee under Barrister Auwal Abdullahi who supervised the Governor Abdullahi Ganduje Congress, said he was on ground to allow a justifiable election which allows for open voting even though it is a consensus congress.
