<p>The Deputy Senate President, Barau I. Jibrin, finds himself navigating a challenging political landscape as Nigerians grapple with abject poverty in one of the most tumultuous political dispensations of Nigeria&#8217;s Fourth Republic. Despite his long-standing political career, Barau&#8217;s recent actions suggest a disconnect with the political realities of his native Kano State.</p>
<p>Barau&#8217;s political journey began in 1999 when he became a member of the House of Representatives for Tarauni Federal Constituency in Kano State. This early start gave him a foothold in the political arena, but recent developments indicate that he may be losing touch with the grassroots dynamics that once propelled his career.</p>
<p>Following the 2023 general elections, Barau&#8217;s political strategy appears increasingly out of sync with the sentiments of Kano&#8217;s electorate. His approach of welcoming every political aspirant into his fold, regardless of their motivations, has raised eyebrows. This open-door policy seems more like a politically motivated reception than a genuine effort to address the needs of the people.</p>

<p>Barau&#8217;s spending spree, aimed at capturing Kano&#8217;s political landscape, is unlikely to yield the desired results. The electorate in Kano is not easily swayed by financial inducements. Instead, they are driven by political ideology and a commitment to principles that resonate with their aspirations.</p>

<p>APC bigwigs should be cautious of Barau&#8217;s antics. His attempts to showcase his ability to dominate Kano&#8217;s political scene may be more about self-promotion than genuine leadership. His history of betraying political godfathers, such as Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, further undermines his credibility. Such actions have not gone unnoticed by the discerning electorate of Kano.</p>
<p>Kano&#8217;s voters are not for sale. They are deeply invested in political ideologies that align with their values and vision for the future. Barau&#8217;s efforts to dislodge these entrenched beliefs are likely to be met with resistance. The electorate&#8217;s loyalty to their principles and their skepticism of opportunistic politics make it clear that Barau&#8217;s current strategy is flawed.</p>
<p>Barau I. Jibrin&#8217;s political miscalculation in Kano highlights the importance of staying connected with the electorate&#8217;s needs and values. His attempts to buy influence and welcome all comers into his political fold may backfire, as Kano&#8217;s voters remain steadfast in their commitment to political ideology over financial inducements. As the 2027 elections approach, Barau will need to reassess his strategy if he hopes to regain the trust and support of his constituents.</p>
