“This appointment places the right person in the right position at a crucial point in our political journey,” Dan’agundi said. “The City Boy Movement needs leadership that understands grassroots mobilisation, and Hon. Nasir Jao’ji has consistently demonstrated that capacity.”
He described Jao’ji as an experienced grassroots mobiliser whose influence cuts across religious leaders, traditional institutions, women, youth, and other segments of society.
According to him, Jao’ji’s long-standing relationships within communities make his emergence as director both appropriate and well deserved.
Dr. Dan’agundi also reaffirmed the alignment of the Tinubu Support Group with the City Boy Movement, stressing that both platforms share a common goal of advancing President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
“The Tinubu Support Group has always stood with progressive movements such as the City Boy Movement, and we will continue to do so,” he said.
“Unity, coordination, and sustained grassroots engagement are essential for consolidating political gains in Kano State and beyond.”
The Tinubu Support Group in Kano State further assured Hon. Jao’ji of its full support and collaboration, expressing confidence that his leadership would help expand the reach and influence of the City Boy Movement while strengthening the political base of the All Progressives Congress (APC) across the state.
