The Lawmaker representing Kiru/Bebeji Kano Federal Constituency had in the countdown to the 2023 general elections left APC to join forces with the NNPP and the Kwankansiya Movement.

“The gathering resolved to leave the NNPP/Kwankansiya, join the APC, and endorse President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for a second term.
“From the beginning, almost 2000 Islamic scholars from my Constituency, have offered special prayers for the President and sought peace, development and progress for Kiru/Bebeji, Kano and Nigeria, altogether”, Hon Abdulmumin stated.
