Ganduje Returns to Nigeria from UK Medical Trip

The immediate past National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, has returned to Nigeria after a medical trip to the United Kingdom.

The former Kano State governor, who resigned from his position as APC chairman in June, arrived in the country on Wednesday morning after spending about a month abroad.

“Yes, he is back in Nigeria today. He is full of life and has returned to his residence,” Ganduje’s former Chief of Staff, Mohammed Garba confirmed.

Garba explained that Ganduje left Nigeria for London five days after stepping down from the APC leadership to undergo medical care.

Ganduje, who assumed the role of APC National Chairman in August 2023, resigned on June 27, 2025, citing health concerns. He was later inaugurated as Chairman of the Board of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) on July 9, while former Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Netanwe Yilwatda, was appointed to succeed him as APC chairman.
