After three months of his suspension, the All Progressives Congress, (APC), in Kebbi State on Thursday, 1 October, 2026 announced the reinstatement of its State Chairman, Abubakar Muhammad Kana-Zuru.
Kana-Zuru reinstatement was announced on Thursday by the party’s state Publicity Secretary of the party, Isah Abubakar Assalafi, at a press conference at the APC secretariat in Birnin Kebbi.
Assalafi said the State Working Committee (SWC) revoked Kana-Zuru’s suspension after reviewing subsequent developments surrounding the decision taken in June.
The SWC had, at its meeting on June 20, 2026, suspended Kana-Zuru from office through Resolution No. KSWC/010/2026.
However, at a meeting held on October 1, 2026, the committee resolved to revoke the suspension and restore him to office with immediate effect.
The decision also terminated the interim arrangement under which Adamu Mudi Augie had been serving as Acting State Chairman.
“Accordingly, Alhaji Adamu Mudi Augie shall cease to act as Acting State Chairman and shall resume his substantive office as Deputy State Chairman,” Assalafi said, just as he also added that all official records and documents relating to the office of State Chairman should be handed over to Kana-Zuru.
The party also directed its state secretary to communicate the resolution to the appropriate party organs, including the national headquarters, for information and necessary action.
The party also said Kana-Zuru had resumed all the functions, powers and responsibilities of the State Chairman with immediate effect.
