Ganduje mocks Kwankwaso, says his supporters are already tired

By Jude Opara, Abuja

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has rubbished the performance of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in Kano, insisting that many supporters of the presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso are disillusioned.

Ganduje made this statement during a dinner organized by the Forum of the 8th and 9th APC Kano State House of Assembly in honor of prominent party stakeholders in the state.

The APC national Chairman who was represented by the Kano APC Chairman, Abdullahi Abbas, took a swipe at Kwankwaso for allegedly exaggerating his popularity in Kano.

“It surprises me when Rabiu Kwankwaso claims he has the people’s support. Without our internal issues during the last election, he wouldn’t have achieved any success in Kano. Today, even his loyalists are full of regret. Kwankwasiyya is no longer relevant, and even the governor seems unaware of the state’s challenges,” Ganduje declared.

The former Kano state governor emphasized the critical role of unity within the APC in reclaiming political dominance in Kano.

“Our success lies in unity. God has already shown His support for us. The current administration has failed Kano, and we are ready to take over. The next election will be straightforward for us,” he said.

Also speaking, Minister of State for Housing and Urban Development, Yusuf Abdullahi Ata, noted that disunity remains the only obstacle for the APC in Kano.

“Winning elections isn’t our issue; if one were held today, we have no doubts about our chances. Unfortunately, God did not grant us victory in the last elections. Let us remain united and prayerful. The current state leadership has failed, and the people are unhappy,” Ata added.

The event which was a moment of celebration and reflection was organized in honor of APC chieftains like Rt. Hon. Kabiru Alhassan Rurum, Labaran Abdul Madari, and Baffa Babba Danagundi.
