Dankabo Hails Garo's Return as a Sign of Unity
Hon. Fahad Dankabo has welcomed the defection of Sadeeq Garo back to the All Progressives Congress (APC), describing the move as a reflection of genuine commitment to Kano's future rather than mere political calculation. Dankabo shared his position in a message published on his Facebook page, where he described the APC as a party with a coherent structure and a clear vision for delivering good governance, economic growth, and lasting development across Kano State and Nigeria.
On Garo's decision to rejoin the party, Dankabo said it signalled that the pursuit of Kano's development transcended personal or partisan interests. He commended Garo's dedication and what he described as a sincere concern for the welfare of ordinary people, adding that young politicians of his calibre have a critical role to play in charting a better course for the state.

Dankabo also used the occasion to praise Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf for his efforts in advancing the state's progress, arguing that leadership genuinely focused on the people deserves recognition regardless of which side of the political divide it comes from. He urged support for the governor's policies, emphasizing that development should be a collective goal.
APC's Open Door Policy and Call for Unity
Dankabo stated that the APC would continue to embrace all those who are sincerely committed to truth and community development, framing the party's approach as one built around inclusivity and effective governance rather than exclusion. He urged Garo to remain active in strengthening the party from within and to continue supporting policies capable of translating into real, measurable improvements for residents of Kano and Nigeria at large.
"May Allah bless Kano, may Allah bless Nigeria," Dankabo wrote, closing his message with a call for divine favour on both the state and the country.
