A former governor of Kano State and leader of the Kwankwasiyya Movement, Senator Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso, has accused the government of Ahmed Bola Tinubu of compromising Kano security by their refusal to take away heavy operatives guarding the deposed Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero.
Kwankwaso also accused the
Federal Government of attempting to create a new breed of terror group and insurgents
in Northern Nigeria.
Kwankwaso was reacting to the
ongoing situation in Kano where federal security agencies are allegedly backing
the deposed Emir Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero.
Speaking during the flag-off
ceremony for the construction of 82 kilometres of rural road networks at his
hometown, Madobi, Senator Kwankwaso said the people of Kano would resist any
attempt to undermine the constituted authority in the state.
“We have mass followership
because people believe in us, we are pro-people and the NNPP administration is
determined to serve them anywhere they voted for it,” he said.
Kwankwaso added that as
politicians, “we will not fold our arms and watch enemies of the state destroy
the peaceful co-existence of our dear state, as we shall do everything possible
to support the governor to succeed. I am happy that he is not distracted and is
focused on achieving his goals.
“There are people from Kano,
enemies of the state, who also suffer mental illness and are the ones advising
the Federal Government on how to take over Kano through a State of Emergency.
This is the madness of the highest order that the good, peace-loving and
committed people of Kano will resist.”
Kwankwaso also stated that “in
the build-ups to 2027, some desperate politicians are already on a mission of
disruption, but we will rather prefer the two of us to lose than to allow them
to crush us unnecessarily.
“We dare anybody, who thinks he
can victimise us politically, to be rest assured that we are ready for the
fight.
“We are not afraid to be out of
power because we will remain politicians in or out of government, we cannot run
away from our destiny, we are humans, we know what is good for us and we will
pursue it vigorously.”
The New Nigeria People’s Party
(NNPP) national leader further stated that the Federal Government was listening
to some unpatriotic politicians from Kano who would only contribute to its
failure.
He vowed that the people of
Kano would resist any attempt to undermine the constitutional responsibility of
the governor by any individual or group.
“We are open to dialogue, truce
and reconciliation, but we will not accept intimidation and political
harassment of any sort.
“We know how to play politics
and we have all it takes to protect ourselves from any evil,” Kwankwaso
emphatically warned.
