Kebbi Gov welcomes ADC chieftain, Bango Kabi into APC
A prominent member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Bello Altine Argungu, popularly known as Bango Kabi, has joined the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kebbi State.
Bango Kabi formally joined the APC on Sunday, August 16, 2026, as political activities intensify ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Receiving the politician into the party, Kebbi State Governor Nasir Idris described his defection as a significant boost to the APC in the state.
The governor said the APC remained open to individuals who were committed to the development, unity and progress of Kebbi State.
The governor reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to improving education, healthcare, security and the welfare of residents.
In a statement issued after his move, Bango Kabi said changing his political platform would not alter his commitment to the development and welfare of the people of Argungu/Augie Federal Constituency, Kebbi State and Nigeria.
He said his decision followed reflection, consultations and engagements with political stakeholders.
Bango Kabi said his political objectives remained unchanged despite the change of platform, describing the move as a new chapter rather than a change of purpose.
The development comes as political activities intensify in Kebbi State, with political actors and parties making strategic moves ahead of the 2027 elections.
