President Muhammadu Buhari has appealed to stakeholders in the All Progressives Congress (APC) across the country to work for genuine reconciliation “for the benefit of our people and our nation.”



Malam Garba Shehu, the President Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, in a statement on Thursday, said Buhari spoke on Wednesday night in Abuja when he received a group of APC members, including Prof. Hafiz Abubakar.



Abubakar, a staunch ally of Sen. Rabiu Kwankwaso, resigned as Deputy Governor of Kano State and defected to the opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).



In welcoming the party leaders back to the APC, President Buhari said the house was large enough to accommodate everyone and promised to speak to the leadership of the party and government in Kano to accommodate and work with the returnees.



Other returnees at the meeting included a former Managing Director of the Nigerian Ports Authority, Aminu Dabo; the immediate past National Treasurer, Bala Mohammed Gwagwarwa; Security Adviser to Kwankwaso, retired Gen. Danjuma Dambazau; Eng. Mu’azu Magaji, all of them staunch members of Kwankwasiyya, as well as Sen. Isa Zarewa who left in protest against the last primaries.



The presidential aide disclosed that the returnees were led to the President by the Governor of Jigawa State, Abubakar Badaru.



Kano state Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje was also at the meeting with the President.
