Abdulmumin Jibrin Returns To APC, Endorses Tinubu For 2027 Re-Election

Abdulmumin Jibrin, the lawmaker for Kiru/Bebeji Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, has returned to the All Progressives Congress (APC) and declared his support for President Bola Tinubu’s bid for re-election in 2027.

Abdulmumin Jibrin, who left the APC in May 2022 to join the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), made the announcement at a political rally in his hometown of Kofa, Bebeji Local Government Area, Kano State, on Sunday.

Sharing the development on his Facebook page on Monday, the lawmaker said his supporters had unanimously agreed to leave the NNPP and the Kwankwasiyya Movement and rejoin the ruling party.

“Today, in a show of solidarity, I was warmly received by thousands of my constituents in my hometown of Kofa, Bebeji, Kano,” Jibrin wrote.

“The gathering resolved to leave the NNPP/Kwankwasiyya, join the APC, and endorse President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for a second term in office.

“From the beginning, almost 2,000 scholars from my constituency have prayed special prayers for the President and sought peace, development, and progress for Kiru/Bebeji, Kano, and Nigeria altogether.”

Jibrin’s return comes just two months after Abdulmumin Jibrin was expelled from the NNPP over allegations of anti-party activities and unpaid membership dues.
