Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has withdrawn his 2023 senatorial ambition.
YANSTV.NG gathered that the governor withdrew for Senator Barau Jibril, a member of Senator Ibrahim Shekarau’s G7.
Ganduje’s decision may not be unconnected with moves to pacify Shekarau, a former governor and prevent him from dumping the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).
Ganduje had last week visited Shekarau inna bid to prevent him from joining forces with another former governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso in NNPP.
