The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kano State has unveiled a 20-member caretaker committee that will pilot the affairs of the party under the leadership of Hon. Rabiu Sale Wankal, alongside its candidates for the House of Representatives, State Assembly and Senate.
The event, which was held on Thursday evening at the Mambayya House Hall, was attended by a large crowd of PDP supporters drawn from the 44 local government areas of Kano State.
Speaking while presenting the committee, the PDP Zonal Women Leader for North-West, Hajiya Zainab Audu Bako, said the PDP remains the foundation of every political movement in Nigeria, noting that every prominent political leader in the country today rose through the PDP.
She said the party has credible and blessed candidates in Kano State who have the interest of the party at heart, and therefore called on party members to remain steadfast and continue to propagate the ideals of the party to show that the PDP is still strong and ready to win the forthcoming elections.
Hajiya Zainab Audu Bako, who represented the National Youth Leader of the PDP, Ambassador Bala Aboki, inaugurated the 20-member caretaker committee led by Hon. Rabiu Sale Wankal as the Chairman of the PDP in Kano State, as approved by the National Working Committee (NWC) in Abuja.
Shortly after the inauguration, the Chairman of the caretaker committee, Hon. Rabiu Sale Wankal, thanked God for the opportunity and expressed gratitude to the national leadership of the party, particularly Ambassador Bala Aboki, for his commitment in ensuring that the leadership was confirmed in Kano.
Wankal expressed confidence that, by God's grace, the PDP will win the governorship election in Kano State, stressing that there is no party stronger than the PDP in the state. He called on the people of Kano to reflect on the current hardship they are facing compared to the PDP era when the common man felt good governance, with free feeding and learning materials for school children and people-oriented programmes.
He expressed hope that members of the caretaker committee will give him full cooperation and support to work hard for the success of the party at all levels, adding that the large turnout of members without financial inducement shows that the people are still with the PDP.
Also speaking, Alhaji Ali Karza, who represented the PDP governorship candidate, Alhaji Muhammad Sani Abacha, at the event, conveyed Abacha's appreciation for the efforts being made to ensure the success of the PDP in Kano State.
He called on supporters to come out en masse and work hard to ensure the victory of Alhaji Muhammad Sani Abacha as the elected Governor of Kano State and all other candidates of the party.
