The Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has cancelled its second campaign visit to Kano scheduled to hold on February 16. 

The announcement was made via the Twitter handle of the party’s PCC and signed by its secretary, James Faleke. 

“Good evening all. Pls be informed that the next Kano Rally for the 16/2/23 is hereby canceled. Signed. James Faleke,” the tweet said. 

Mr Faleke did not give any reason for the cancellation of the scheduled event.
