A political group representing non-indigenous residents in Kano has endorsed Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf's re-election bid for the 2027 general elections. The group, called the APC United Residence Alliance (AURA), said it would mobilise support for all APC candidates across the state's 44 local government areas. Its coordinator, Seyi Olorunsola, urged non-indigenes to back Yusuf, citing road rehabilitation projects in Sabon Gari, including Zungeru Road and Sarki Yaki Road, as evidence of the administration's impact on their communities.
Olorunsola said AURA was formed after Governor Yusuf rejoined the APC in January 2026, calling the move a historic political realignment. He stated that the alliance aims to make non-indigenes active participants in governance, not just spectators. The group draws members from Igbo, Yoruba, South-South and other northern communities living in Kano.
Olorunsola added that AURA supports both Yusuf's development agenda and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's "Renewed Hope" programme. The group is collaborating with the Kano APC leadership led by Chairman Umar Haruna Doguwa.
