The Gwarzo ADC resignation was confirmed in a letter addressed to the Chairman of the party in Gwarzo Local Government Area, where the former deputy governor stated that his decision takes immediate effect.

Gwarzo further explained that the evolving political environment made it necessary for him to “chart a new course” in line with his long-term political vision. His remarks suggest a strategic repositioning amid shifting alliances within Kano’s political circles.
