EKO HOT BLOG reports that a Kano Lawmaker, Ali Ibrahim Isah Shanono, has rejoined the All Progressives Congress (APC), some days after leaving for the New Nigeria People Party (NNPP).

Shanono, who represents Bagwai/Shanono Constituency in the Kano State House of Assembly, was part of the 14 state lawmakers who had earlier joined the NNPP.

The defected members consist of lawmakers from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the APC.

According to Daily Trust, Shanono, in a dramatic move, sent a letter to the House announcing that he has deactivated his NNPP membership and returned to APC.

The returning lawmaker also pledged his full commitment to make sure the APC succeeds in the forthcoming elections.

Recall that a former House of Representatives member, Abdulmumin Jibrin, had also teamed up with the NNPP after dumping the APC.

Jibrin, who was the former Director-General of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu presidential campaign groups, left the APC after unresolved differences with the Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje.
