Senate President Godswill Akpabio says Kano State remains a stronghold for the All Progressives Congress, APC, ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Akpabio said his confidence is based on the strategic influence of Deputy Senate President, Barau Jibrin, APC National Chairman Abdullahi Ganduje, and Special Adviser to the President on Senate Matters, Senator Basheer Lado.
The President of the Senate stated this during a visit to Lado in his office at the National Assembly.
He applauded him for ensuring seamless and confidential communication between the Executive and the Senate, describing his performance as unprecedented.
“With the Deputy Senate President, the National Chairman of APC, and your strategic influence, Kano is already secured for the APC ahead of 2027,” Akpabio said.
“Since Senator Lado assumed office, there has not been a single leakage of private communication between the Presidency and the Senate,” hee said.
Akpabio reiterated the importance of maintaining confidentiality in governance, warning that leaks could negatively impact national security and decision-making.
He also acknowledged Lado’s role in enhancing collaboration between the Executive and the Legislature, ensuring smoother communication and coordination.
“Your performance over the last eight months has been outstanding. You have strengthened the synergy between the Executive and the Legislature, making governance more effective,” he added.
