“Reality Will Speak” – Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso’s Aide Downplays Abba Kabir Yusuf’s Defection

Habibu Saleh, the Kwankwasiyya Movement’s spokesperson, says that the Movement is still strong even though Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf has joined the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Seleh said this in an interview with Daily Post, where he was asked about claims that his boss, Rabiu Kwankwaso, now shares Kano’s political structure with Yusuf.

Saleh said that the political situation in Kano isn’t new. He remembered that former Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje once left the Kwankwasiyya Movement with a lot of political supporters, but the Movement stayed strong and eventually got back in power.

He said that even though they lost important people, like elected officials at the time, the group reorganized and came back stronger. He thinks this will happen again.

He says that the ruling structure in Kano is not managing its internal divisions well, which could help Kwankwaso win the next election.

He also said that people might not understand Kwankwaso’s power because they don’t know what direction his politics are going in.

He said, “It may look that way on paper, but history has shown that it isn’t. We’ve been here before.

“We didn’t have a councillor, a lawmaker, or even a political appointee at one point, but we came back stronger and took back power.

“We’re even more organized now, and I promise you that things won’t go back to normal. We will do better than we did before.

“The current political situation in Kano is not well managed, and even within the APC and the government, there is no proper alignment.

“What’s important is getting rid of this government and giving Nigerians a better choice.

“Some people may not fully understand Kwankwaso’s political journey. But we are sure that the truth will come out on its own.
