The Arewa APC Forum, Kano State chapter, has officially pulled its support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s second-term ambition, citing serious concerns over governance and leadership direction.
In a strongly-worded statement issued on Friday, April 17, 2026, the forum said the decision was reached after “extensive consultations and careful reflection” on the current state of affairs at the federal level.
The group stated that it could no longer, “in good conscience,” continue to back the administration, which it accused of nepotism, incompetence, and corruption.“
Leadership must inspire confidence, uphold fairness, and demonstrate a sincere commitment to national unity, institutional integrity, and responsible governance,” the statement read.
It added that where these values are persistently undermined, “silence becomes complicity.”
The forum declared that it has withdrawn its confidence in the current political direction and urged all its members to align with this new position in future political engagements.
The statement was signed by Sallah Hakilu Kibiya, Chairman of the Arewa APC Forum, Kano State chapter.
The development marks a significant crack in the support base of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the North, as political realignments intensify ahead of the 2027 general elections.
