The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr Abudullahi Umar Ganduje, alongside other stakeholders, have urged members of party in Kano State to unite so as to wrestle power from the incumbent New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) administration in the state.
Ganduje made the call during the 8th and 9th APC members Kano State House of Assembly Forum Dinner held Sunday night in honour of Rt Hon Kabiru Alhassan Rurum, Rt Hon Hamisu Ibrahim Chidari, Rt Hon Yusuf Abdullahi Atta, Labaran Abdul Madari, Ayuba Labaran Durum, Babangida Alasan Yakudima and Baffa Babba Danagundi.
“Unity is the only way out for us, it’s the only option we have to get what we want. God has already intervened in our situation, the current government is already distorting the state, we are just waiting for time. The next election will be a thing of shifting a hen from its eggs.
“I always get surprised when Rabiu Kwankwaso said he is the one who has people, I can swear to God if not for our issues that some of us went away he wouldn’t have won any election in Kano and he will see this time around. He will understand that those that helped him are already disappointed and regretting.
“I am assuring you that we are done with Kwankwasiyya. Even the Governor is not aware of all that is going on,” Ganduje,who was represented by the Kano State Chairman of the party, Prince Abdullahi Abbas,said.
Also speaking, the Minister of State, Housing and Urban Development,Yusuf Abdullahi Ata, lamented the disunity in party in the state.
“What is left for us in Kano is just unity, the issue of election is not our problem, if the elections will hold today we don’t have any concern or cause to be afraid. The one before we won, it’s just God that did not give us victory, we won, let’s just pray and forge ahead in unity.
“We must work towards reclaiming Kano because the way the state is being handled now we all know it’s not in good hands. Nobody is enjoying the leadership.
“I must appreciate the President for all that he is doing for us and Kano State, anything that he does he gives Kano a priority. When he was giving states 250 housing units,he gave Kano 500 units,” Ata added.
In his welcome speech, the Chairman of the Forum, Abdul’azeez Garba Gafasa, said that the honorees were selected from those that were opportuned to benefit from Federal appointments.
Gafasa expressed gratitude for the unity of the forum, saying members are still their brothers’ keepers and working to uplift one another, adding that, “Our leaders are trying and have tried in bringing us together.”
