The Kwankwasiyya Movement has formally announced that former Kano State Governor, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, will officially defect to the African Democratic Congress (ADC) on Monday, March 30, 2026.
In what is shaping up to be a defining moment in Nigeria’s evolving political landscape, the movement disclosed that Kwankwaso will not only declare for the party but also complete his formal registration with the African Democratic Congress on the same day.
The planned defection signals a major political realignment, with the Kwankwasiyya bloc expected to move en masse into the ADC, potentially altering power dynamics both in Kano State and beyond.
Insiders describe the move as a strategic consolidation effort aimed at building a stronger opposition front ahead of future electoral contests, with Kwankwaso positioned as a central figure in the emerging coalition.
Political analysts say the development could trigger ripple effects across party lines, especially in the North, where the Kwankwasiyya Movement commands significant grassroots influence.
All eyes are now on March 30, as supporters and political stakeholders await what is expected to be a high-profile political crossover that could redefine alliances in the run-up to the next electoral cycle.
