By Ali Baba-Inuwa
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress(APC) in Kano State,Dr. Musa Iliyasu Kwankwaso, says President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will get a landslide victory in the North in the 2027 presidential election, despite the negative propaganda against his administration coming mainly from the region.
In a statement distributed to journalists in Kano on Monday, Kwankwaso, advised the president not to worry, saying that the attacks on his government are not new in Nigeria when general elections are approaching.
“The president should not worry about the negative propaganda being peddled against his administration by a section of the North.Some past presidents had encountered similar sentiments and survived them.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu too,will survive the ongoing attacks on his government.The attacks will fizzle out and the president will sweep the Northern votes in a landslide victory towards his eventual reelection and inauguration for a second term in 2027,” he said.
Kwankwaso, who is also the Director Finance Hadejia Jammaare River Basin Authority(HJRBDA), also stated that Tinubu had been able to address the problems facing the North,which according to him,past leaders from the North could not solve.
“Athough late President Buhari did his very best, but it was during his tenure that the Northwestern part of the country experienced the most deadly problems of insecurity.
“Why didn’t the Northerners blame Buhari for failing to rescue the region from the agony of kidnapping, banditry, frequent attacks and abduction of innocent people including school children, which flourished during his administration,” he said.
According to him, Tinubu and the Service Chiefs have been doing their best in tackling the lingering insecurity facing the country and urged the citizens to appreciate their efforts.
The APC bigwig also noted that all the good projects started by late President Buhari in the North such as railways, roads, water supply, Agriculture and the AKK Gas Project are being sustained,innovated upon and completed by Tinubu.
“President Tinubu has clearly shown and continues to show that he is not a tribalistic leader.He is executing road and railway projects all over Northern Nigeria,from Kano to Daura to Maradi, Kano to Abuja, Maiduguri to Porthacourt, Kano to Maiduguri,Kano to Gwarzo and Kano to Katsina,” he said.
On the recent defection of Gov. Kabir Yusuf and and former Gov. Ibrahim Shekarau to the APC,Kwankwaso, said the development had boosted the party’s strength in Kano State and president Tinubu’s chances to sweep the polls in the state and the entire North.
