Following his return, the former APC National Chairman is expected to commence series of consultations and stakeholdersโ meetings focusing on recent political developments in Kano state.
These engagements, according to a statement signed by his chief of staff, Malam Muhammad Garba are aimed at reviewing the evolving political landscape and consulting widely with party leaders and critical stakeholders.
Dr. Ganduje is also expected to go for the ongoing APC nationwide electronic membership registration (e-registration) exercise.
The initiative, which he pioneered during his tenure as National Chairman, was designed to modernise the partyโs membership database, enhance internal planning and ensure that APC membership records are comprehensive, credible and easily accessible.
The former governor remains committed to strengthening party structures and promoting inclusive dialogue in support of democratic consolidation within the APC, particularly in Kano state.
