The All Progressives Congress (APC) has provided template for the harmonisation of the party structure in Kano to address the lingering leadership crisis.

This is contained in a letter addressed to Governor Abdullahi Ganduje by the APC national chairman, Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee, Mai Mala Buni.

The letter was signed by the chairman’s chief of staff, Abdullahi Gashua, a copy of which was made available to journalists on Monday in Kano.

“Hon. Mai Mala Buni decided to wade in, to restore sanity and bring back unity of purpose and re-enact the eroded trust among the APC members, Kano state family. With the support of capable and tested hands, the reconciliation committee headed by Governor Buni, sat with leading lights of the two sides,” the letter stated. “And painstakingly examined all issues raised which bothered mainly on exclusion.”

It added, “That, Governor Abdullahi Ganduje is the undisputed APC leader in Kano state, and as the leader, he is encouraged to demonstrate leadership to accommodating key stakeholders. That none of the two sides can have 100 per cent of its demands and that you cannot lack what you give, you only lack what you keep.”

The letter further gave terms of reference of the caucus formation at local government and state levels.
.
It noted that all caucuses were restricted to only their local government areas.

According to the letter, the caucuses will have the following as members, serving senators and House of Reps Members from the local government, if any.

Others were serving members of state assembly, serving chairman and his deputy and commissioner..

The letter indicated that the national/state joint committee reserved the right to adopt or amend any proposal submitted to it by the local government caucus.

“The National/State Joint Supervisory Committee members were Gov. Abdullahi Ganduje, Sen. Ibrahim Shekarau, Gov. Bello Matawalle of Zamfara State, Hon. Yakubu Dogara and Sen. Abba Ali. The committee will sit in Kano and will have seven days within which to complete and submit its report,” explained the letter.
