The governor said Kwankwaso did not know or may have forgotten that the presidency he was searching for was already occupied.

“Kwankwaso looked for an ambition that does not exist in APC he left the party after realising that; but still lost out in the PDP, making him almost losing out in the scheme of things generally.

“Kano politics is Buhari and Buhari is Kano politics; today Kano people and APC stand firm behind President Muhammadu Buhari and there is nothing anybody can do about that,” he said.

Governor Ganduje further declared that the APC in Kano has no conflict arguing that the party’s primaries were done without problems.

“Today, we have 30 out of 40 House of Assembly members contesting without any problem and out of three senators, two are going back without any problem,” he added.

Legit.ng, however, reported that Governor Abdullahi Ganduje ordered the immediate closure of two major stadiums in the state.

The governor reportedly gave this order on Tuesday, February 5, five days to Atiku Abubakar’s presidential campaign rally.

The governor ordered the renovation of Sani Abacha Stadium situated at Kofar Mata and Kano Pillars stadium at Sabon Gari and this is expected to end on February 18.

The proposed general renovation works include the installation of the new score board, the running track and provision of sources for steady water supply to all parts of the stadiums.

Abbati Sabo who is the spokesman of the sports commission said the closure was not targeted at the presidential rally of Atiku but as a result of the 2019-2020 Nigeria Premier League (NPL) season.

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...
