Before his Excellency President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR join partisan politics, Daura is one of the strongest support base of our beloved party, PDP in Katsina State.

After he joined the opposition party ,Daura turned to be the headquarters of the opposition in the state which resulted to the rejection of our great party whereby to be a PDP supporter one will be treated as an outcasts and totally rejected simply because they are not in the opposition party.

PDP as a great party have achieved considerable successes in terms of human and infrastructural development of the entire state with notable capital human development programs.

It becomes an attitude, habits and well established tradition to abused, mocked, ridicule and above all stigmatized the PDP lead government and it’s officials as thieves with slogans PDP WAWA/YAN WAWA, BARAYI without decorum and respect for the government officials.

From APP up to APC members of the then main opposition party paraded themselves as saints and their supporters used every available means and opportunity to disgraced members of the then ruling party.

Breaking:APC Sweeps 44 Kano LGA’s
Opposition party in the Katsina State promised the indigenes of the State they will turn things around better than what late Alhaji Umaru Musa Yar’adua and Barrister Ibrahim Shehu Shema did to develop the state.

People in the state and those like us that came casually knows what Governor Aminu Bello Masari did for their state in terms of massive infrastructures that cannot be forgotten in the state.

In 2015 there was massive jubilation in Katsina State to celebrate the victory of APC which ended the ruling of thieves and brought in the saints to lead the state with high expectations that the government of APC will surpass the successes recorded by the previous administrations in terms of capital, human and infrastructure.

However, the good people of Katsina since the first tenure of the current administration saw that, the APC lead government is not match and uncomparable to our great party PDP because there is no sign that APC will catch-up with the achievements of PDP talk less of exceeding what PDP achieved which each and everyone of us can glaringly see on ground and verifiable.

When our great party came, it did not scrambled or tempered with the State’s assets especially landed property. Out of the love for the development of the State, PDP the stigmatized thieves protect the existing infrastructures and built additional infrastructures at the state and local government areas.

Whosoever is following social media the news trending from Katsina State will come across posts, comments and reactions on land allocation, it is not a new things to see online protests against the allocations of land to some selected few due to some personal interests as a favor to those that are closed to the government.

What drawn my attention to write this piece is the recent online arguments and debates generated by a post whereby Katsina State allocated shops build by Daura Local Government to the APC party Chairman of Daura.

My conclusions from what I read is that I am highly impressed by the comments that followed where the majority do not support such gift to the party Chairman because is not in the best interests of the general public but promotion of personal interests.

My loyalty to my great party PDP does not blind me to see the good sides of His Excellency President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR as a honest and no nonsense man who’s name is synonymous to anti-corruption as well as father and grandfather that deserved our respect.

Personally I have no reason to blame President Muhammadu Buhari and directly link him with this ugly development under the watch of his party ,is a serious setback on anti-corruption crusade, slap on his face and the entire state.

If there is any state that would be expected to lead by example in terms of accountability, prudence and transparency is Katsina State as his State and Daura his hometown will be a no-go-area of any allocation of government property, but unfortunately APC party Chairman was allocated with local government property as compensation for his plots acquired by Daura Local Government.

To me this is a compensation of the century which gives buildings that are more valuable than the plots which belongs to him. This is happening under the watch of the Saints. The so-called PDP thieves preserved and protected these shops, but the Saints got away with it not in the best interests of Daura people but for selfish interests.

Over 200,000 members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano State have dismissed allegations of incompetence against the ministerial nominee, retired Hon. Yusuf Abdullah Atta, as baseless. Some APC members in Kano believe the allegations stem from personal grudges held by a few individuals who are not legitimate members of the party.

In a statement, Mustapha Gidan Magani, the secretary of APC Kwaciri Ward, on behalf of the entire executive committee of APC Fagge Local Government Area, rejected the allegations of anti-party activities during the 2023 general election. The executives argued that those intending to submit a petition to the Senate, claiming to represent 50,000 APC members, have no legal standing to make such claims.

The APC executives from Fagge Local Government Area are prepared to counter the petition, asserting that it will have little impact on the confirmation of Atta as Minister of State for Housing and Urban Development. They expressed gratitude to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for nominating Atta, highlighting his administrative skills and dedication to serving humanity.

Salisu Usman Karaskabuli, a youth activist of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Kano, has called for the immediate suspension of several high-ranking party members, including former governor Ibrahim Shekarau, Bello Hayatu Gwarzo, and Yahaya Bagobiri.

He accused them of sabotaging the party’s efforts in the state and hindering PDP’s progress in the region.

Addressing journalists in Kano, Salisu Karaskabuli alleged that Shekarau has engaged in anti-party activities during the 2023 governorship election.
“Despite being a PDP leader, the majority of his supporters backed the APC candidate,” Salisu Karaskabuli said.
He further claimed that Shekarau is already mobilizing his supporters to work for Senator Barau’s governorship ambitions in 2027, signaling ongoing disloyalty.

Salisu Karaskabuli also blamed the PDP National Vice Chairman for the Northwest Bello Hayatu Gwarzo for failing to unite the party across the region.
He noted that prominent PDP members, such as former governors Ibrahim Shema of Katsina and Ramalan Yero of Kaduna, had defected to other parties due to Gwarzo’s ineffective leadership.
Concerning the recent PDP congress in Kano, Usman expressed frustration, rejecting the outcomes of the ward, local government, and state congresses.
He accused the leadership of the party for partisan zoning and disqualifying candidates without valid reasons.

Further accusations were leveled at Yahaya Bagobiri, the chairman of PDP elders in Kano.
Salisu Usman claimed that Bagobiri had leaked sensitive party information to the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) leader Rabiu Kwankwaso.

Usman Karaskabuli called on the national leadership of the PDP to investigate the accused members and, if found guilty, take appropriate disciplinary action.

The accusations come at a time when the PDP in Kano and the wider Northwest is grappling with internal divisions, which some fear could weaken the party ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Sadiq Ali Sango, a prominent youth activist of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano State, has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to consider appointing Murtala Sule Garo as a minister in the forthcoming cabinet reshuffle.
Sango made this known in a statement released to journalists in Kano.

The Federal Government recently announced that President Tinubu would soon reshuffle his cabinet, sparking widespread speculation over potential new appointees.
Sango expressed optimism that Garo, a grassroots politician with a proven track record, would be a fitting choice for a ministerial position.

“Murtala Sule Garo is not only a politician but a true son of the soil, with immense contributions to the APC in Kano,” Sango stated.
“His service as the APC’s deputy gubernatorial candidate in the 2023 election and his unwavering commitment to the party despite not having the reins of government in Kano makes him the ideal candidate for Tinubu’s cabinet.”

Sango further highlighted Garo’s role in holding the party together during difficult times, describing him as the “supporting pillar” of the APC in Kano.
“He has carried the party on his shoulders, providing support to party leaders and members alike,” he added.

With the APC no longer in control of Kano State’s government, Garo’s influence at the grassroots level has been pivotal for the party’s continued strength in the region.
According to Sango, Garo’s appointment would reinforce the party’s position in Kano and contribute to the success of President Tinubu’s administration.

The call for Murtala Sule Garo’s inclusion in the Federal Executive Council comes amid growing anticipation regarding the composition of the new cabinet and the need for strong political figures to represent Kano at the national level.
