Kano APC Anointed Candidates Suppose To Be In Jail-Prof Hafiz Abubakar
The former Deputy Governor said he is still in APC but will not support Ganduje and his ilk in the forthcoming general elections due to the persecution he is facing within the APC.
“Iam not surprised with Muhammad Garba’s statement because I know his background. Look at the press release he issued a sarcastic one , the headline was constructed as if he is praying for me while the content is filled with defamation and innuendos. I want to also let him know that he is working in the public office and I am an indigene of Kano State, I have a say on how my state is being governed, although l am not surprised by Mr Garba’s press release on my position regarding his principal” He said.
“I sat with Governor Ganduje several times to iron issues regarding the persecution of my people in APC but nothing change.” He further said.
The former Deputy Governor said he is still standing on his position about relating with uncivilized folks ,in a situation where by people of Muhammad Garba’s calibre and a Commissioner of information who is being paid from the state’s purse will make sarcastic statement about my profession as professor of food and nutrition then what do you expect from such people.
He said these are people releasing statements portraying me as a political prostitute and now they are praying for God to touch my heart and support the APC despite the persecution I am facing from them.
The former Deputy Governor said he is quite sure that even if he offered himself to support Ganduje and his people during the forthcoming election he is very sure his political followers will revolt against the decision.
