The spokesperson of the Kwankwasiyya Movement, Habeeb Saleh Mohammed, has stated that the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano is synonymous with thuggery.
He made the comments on Friday during an interview on Arise TV, where he also accused the ruling party of being out of touch with the realities facing Nigerians, especially the poor.
He said the Kwankwasiyya ideology was against such practices.
“The APC represents thuggery in Kano State. They represent most of so many things that are right in harm’s way to the masses, to people that are downtrodden, which our ideology seeks to protest,” he said.
He also levelled his criticism at the national level.
The policies of the APC-led federal government are not properly planned or considered for the well-being of the citizens, he added.
“We can see even on the national level, the policies rolled out by APC, the commander-in-chief, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, does not have an inch of feeling as to what happens when he rolls out policies,” he said.
He further alleged that the government brings in policies without proper assessment of how it will affect the Nigerians.
“They have never had a chance to do what’s called policy risk assessment,” he said.
He accused the party of behaving as if it owns Nigeria and forcing citizens to accept its decisions.
“These are the people that believe they own Nigeria, whatever they throw out, you must accept it,” he said.
He said that the Kwankwasiyya Movement feels it cannot work with the APC in any condition.
The spokesperson said Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf has his own baggages, which led him to the APC, but that there will be a time for more revelations on political decisions.
“We have found home in our relationship with Peter Obi… the years in between have helped us to understand ourselves,” he said.
The comments follow the accusation of Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso working for President Bola Tinubu by the Kano State Director of Media, Sanusi Bature.
