NNPP Is Trying To Undermine Ganduje’s Relevance Ahead Of Kano Election – APC

The ruling All Progressives Congress has come out to accuse the National Leader of the New Nigeria People’s Party, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso of deliberately attempting to undermine the political relevance of its National Chairman, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje, ahead of the next election in Kano State.

This was recently disclosed by the National Legal Adviser of the APC, Prof Abdulkareem Kana, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, all evidence at his disposal suggests that the leadership of the NNPP and its chieftains in Kano state are behind the pockets of sponsored protests to remove Ganduje as the national chairman of the APC.

He added that it is NNPP’s show of power targeted at making Ganduje irrelevant ahead of the next election in the state.

His words, “I am not from Kano. But I have heard analysis from prominent politicians who think so (a war between Kwankwaso and Ganduje). It is an attempt to create a problem within our party. Of course, I have heard my chairman speak on this matter and I will believe his analysis that the idea is to demystify him going into the next election in the state. It is also possible to impact his influence, which is looming in Kano.

But what could have led to the seeming collapse in the relationship between him and Kwankwaso, I really cannot say. These are two politicians who have come a long way. So I think this is pure politics at play and at some point, I am confident that they may likely find themselves at a point of convergence in which the issue will be resolved.

The individuals who perpetrated the act of claiming identities that were not theirs are not members of our party. Within that community, they are known to be NNPP members. The NNPP is trying to scratch our skin but they are not capable of destabilising our party.

Having worked with Ganduje for a month, I have come to see him as a father. He is a very responsible leader from the little I have learnt from him and he makes efforts to carry everybody along in his activities. He is a very experienced administrator and we are seeing the quality of his service in the party.”

WOW.
