Kano Deputy Speaker Massau dumps APC

Zubairu Hamza Massau, the Deputy Speaker of the Kano State House of Assembly, has decamped from the All Progressives Congress, APC.

This was contained in a letter addressed to the ward chairman of the APC, Massu town.

This means the APC has lost four members of the Kano House of Assembly since Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje anointed Nasiru Gawuna, his deputy, to succeed him.

The endorsement of Gawuna from Kano central has angered members of the APC in Kano Sout.

The deputy speaker, who is representing Sumaila Local Government from Kano South was, however, yet to state his next party as of the time of filing this report.

“Following the recent happening in the party couple with series of consultations with my constituents, supporters and stakeholders in Sumaila and Kano North in general, I write to notify you of my intention and decision to resign as a member of APC.

“The decision is mainly due to unjust treatment, inadequate internal democracy and total marginalization of Kano south from a lot of opportunities,” the letter read.
