Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, leader of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), has welcomed Hon. Hamza Buhari Bakwana, a former stalwart of the All Progressives Congress (APC), into the party.

 

 

Bakwana, who officially joined the party on Thursday, September 18, 2025, pledged full loyalty to the NNPP.

 

This is contained in a statement by Saifullahi Hassan, Media aide to Senator Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso, on his X handle on Thursday.

 

 

Bankwana said he would, “contribute massively to the growth and success of the movement, Insha Allah.”

 

The event took place at Kwankwaso’s residence on Miller Road, Kano, where Bakwana was accompanied by APC members from five local government areas of the state — Dawakin Kudu, Rano, Gwarzo, Ungogo, and Kumbotso — who also defected to the NNPP.
