Northwest APC hails Abba Yusuf’s defection as best political move

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in the Northwest has hailed Kano State governor Abba Kabir Yusuf’s defection from the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) to the ruling party as one of the best political decisions of the current dispensation.
