Members of the Kano State House of Assembly have expressed support for Governor Abubakar Umar Yusuf’s plans to defect from his current political party. Lawmakers said the move is necessary to prevent potential political instability and avert looming danger in the state.

During a recent session, Assembly members noted that the governor’s decision aligns with the need to safeguard Kano’s political and social interests. They stressed that the defection would strengthen governance and create a more stable environment for citizens.

The legislators emphasized that political transitions, when carefully managed, can help prevent conflicts, enhance party cohesion, and ensure continuity in government policies. They urged stakeholders and residents to cooperate with the governor for a smooth transition.

Supporters of the governor argued that defection is sometimes a strategic choice to protect the state’s welfare and maintain unity among political actors. They believe that backing the governor now will prevent future crises and foster progress in Kano.
