2027 elections: Kano APC backs polling unit agents’ association, promises support

The Kano State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has pledged to support the activities of the National Association of All Progressives Congress Political Polling Unit Agents (NAAPCPUA) ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The pledge followed a courtesy visit by the association’s National Chairman and Founder, Yusuf Muhammad Abdulkadir, and other members of its national and state executives to the Kano APC Chairman, Hon. Umar Haruna Doguwa, at the party’s state secretariat along Maiduguri Road, Kano.

Speaking after the meeting, Abdulkadir said discussions centred on the association’s plans to strengthen its grassroots structures, organise training programmes for polling unit agents and prepare members for their responsibilities during the 2027 general elections.

He said the delegation also presented the association’s documents to the state party leadership as part of efforts to secure wider political support and formal recognition from the Kano State Government.

Abdulkadir disclosed that Doguwa welcomed the initiative and assured the association of his support, particularly in facilitating its engagement with relevant state authorities.

Another major issue discussed during the visit was the association’s planned Kano State convention, which is expected to bring together coordinators and executive members from all 44 local government areas.

According to Abdulkadir, the convention is expected to hold in November, with arrangements, including the choice of venue, still being finalised.

He said the gathering would provide an opportunity for the national and state leadership to meet with grassroots representatives, strengthen the association’s structures and agree on strategies for its activities ahead of the 2027 elections.

The national chairman expressed appreciation to Doguwa for receiving the delegation and pledging his support, describing the meeting as an important step towards strengthening the association’s presence in Kano State.

He added that the public would be informed of the convention’s venue and other details once the arrangements were concluded.
