decided to return home with over 5,000 of our members and more are
coming by God’s grace,” the former State Organising Secretary of the
group, Abdullahi Nayalwa, said.

represents Kano Central senatorial zone in the National Assembly, and an
aspirant in the recent presidential primaries of the Peoples Democratic
Party(PDP) that was won by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
