Ganduje: Kano’ll vote Tinubu, reject Kwankwaso

Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has declared that the people of Kano State will vote for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu against a citizen of the state, Rabiu Kwankwaso on February 25.

Tinubu is the Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) while Kwankwaso is the candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).

Kano State has over five million votes in the forthcoming general election.

Ganduje stated that the North is backing Tinubu because of his firm belief in nation building, all-encompassing pedigree, firm belief in human and national development, among other factors.

The governor spoke on Wednesday during a campaign tour with APC candidates.

Ganduje said: “We voted for Chief MKO Abiola of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) and rejected Bashir Othman Tofa of the National Republican Convention (NRC) because we all believed in national integration and competence.

“Tinubu was an instrument behind Atiku Abubakar’s emergence as the presidential candidate of Action Congress (AC). He also provided another platform for Nuhu Ribadu to contest for the presidency on the platform of Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN).

“Therefore, Asiwaju Tinubu worked very hard to maintain the equation, hence, his support for Northern presidential candidates in the past. One good turn deserves another. We have no other option now than to support his candidature.

“Tinubu, the only deserving and most competent presidential candidate in the upcoming election, is being supported by the North because of his firm belief in nation building, all-encompassing pedigree, firm belief in human and national development, among other factors.”
