Former Deputy Governor of Kano State and former Minister of State for Housing and Urban Development, Abdullahi Tijjani Gwarzo, has met with Vice President Kashim Shettima at his Abuja residence, days after he was screened by the All Progressives Congress (APC) as an aspirant for the Kano North Senatorial District.
Gwarzo disclosed this in a post shared on his official Facebook page on Tuesday.
According to him, the visit was held alongside former Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, and the member representing Bichi Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Abba Abubakar Kabir Bichi.
He stated that discussions during the meeting focused on political developments and issues concerning the Kano North Senatorial District.
“Today, together with the former Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, and the member representing Bichi Federal Constituency, Abba Abubakar Kabir Bichi, we met with the Vice President of Nigeria, His Excellency Kashim Shettima. We discussed politics and political affairs in Kano North, and he wished us success and prosperity in our political journey,” Gwarzo wrote.
Gwarzo recently declared his intention to contest the Kano North Senatorial seat on the platform of the All Progressives Congress ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The Kano North Senatorial District is currently represented by Barau I. Jibrin, who also serves as the Deputy President of the Senate.
