The Kano State branch of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has successfully appointed 34 new state executive members, with Abdullahi Maikano appointed as the new state chairman.
The congress took place on Sunday at the Cobra Stadium, Magajin Rumfa, in Kano.
Results announced by Saifullahi Hassan, media aide to former Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso, show Bala Inuwa was elected as secretary, Abba Muktar as treasurer, and Salisu Muhammad as financial secretary.
Further appointments include Muhammad Yahaya as legal adviser, Farida Kamba as women leader, and Sunusi Oscar as youth leader, among other positions.
The congress was attended by members of the Kano State Transition Committee and national officials from the ADC headquarters in Abuja, who oversaw the proceedings and vetted the candidates.
Notable attendees also included Mr Kwankwaso, the ADC's governorship candidate for Kano in 2023, Ibrahim Khalil, and party chieftain Al’amin Little.
Mr Hassan further disclosed that Mr Kwankwaso has accepted a 60% share of the ADC's party structure. This represents a smaller portion than the 80% initially offered by the party's leadership.
He characterized the arrangement as equitable and noted that it was designed to enable greater involvement from members within the opposition coalition.
