Kano state Governor, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has declared that his
\npredecessor, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso will not win election in his own
\nvillage in 2019, talkless of defeating President Muhammadu Buhari.<\/p>\n
Ganduje who was reacting to Kwankwaso’s claim that he can defeat President
\nBuhari should the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) give him ticket in 2019,
\nsaid Kwankwaso’s political structure has been squarely dismantled in Kano
\nso much that he has lost grip of the realities of Kano politics.<\/p>\n
In a statement signed by the state Commissioner for Information, Malam
\nMuhammad Garba and made available to journalists on Sunday, Ganduje
\ndescribed Kwankwaso as, “a political fugitive who does not have the
\nplatform, the intellectual capability and mental ability to manage the
\naffairs of Nigeria.”<\/p>\n
The statement added that, “Senator Kwankwaso’s latest utterances have
\nconfirmed the fact that he is now a confused politician who is grabbing
\nevery opportunity to relaunch himself back to relevance.<\/p>\n
“For over three years, he has been sleeping at the Senate without
\nsponsoring even a bill that will positively impact on the lives of
\nNigerians. This is a clear indication that he has nothing to offer. He is
\njust being boastful.<\/p>\n
“For over three years, Kwankwaso has been at the Senate, he has not
\nvisited Kano Central, his senatorial district. He has not executed any
\ntangible constituency project for his people.<\/p>\n
“Since then, he has not been around and we have been here in Kano playing
\nthe game of politics the way it should be done. The good people of Kano
\nare appreciating our modest achievements and they have expressed
\nconfidence in us.”<\/p>\n
The statement further stated that, “Senator Kwankwaso’s dream to get the
\nPDP presidential ticket remains a tall one that can never see the light of
\nthe day because those he is going to meet there are familier with his
\nantics. They have not forgotten in a hurry, the role he played in
\ndestroying the same PDP.<\/p>\n
“I am surprise that Kwankawso is now talking about people like Malam
\nIbrahim Shekarau, a man he persecuted and betrayed in many occasions. I
\nam surprise he is talking about the PDP, a party he destroyed and
\nbetrayed many of the chieftains who are still there today to pay him back
\nwith his own coin.”<\/p>\n
Ganduje insisted that Kwankwaso is no longer relevant in Kano politics,
\npointing out that, “all his political structure has been completely
\ndismantled. Those who know him will understand that he is overrating
\nhimself and can not be seen as a major contender in the 2019 presidential
\nelection. He is an usurper who wants power by all means. Here in Kano, the
\nsupport for President Buhari and the APC is non-negotiable.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
