Kano Governor’s Spokesperson, Sanusi Bature, in Political Clash with House of Reps Member

A political rift has emerged between Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, spokesperson to Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of Kano State, and Hon. Jobe, a member of the House of Representatives representing Dawakin Tofa, Tofa, and Rimin Gado Federal Constituency.

Sanusi Bature publicly expressed his discontent with Hon. Jobe in a strongly worded statement posted on his verified Facebook page, signaling the start of what appears to be a fierce political confrontation.

In the post, written in Hausa, Bature challenged the federal lawmaker, stating that he was not afraid of any political battle. He emphasized the importance of leaders fulfilling their responsibilities to the people, asserting that public officeholders must be accountable to those who elected them.

“Tell my brother, Hon. Jobe, that if he wants a fight, I’m ready. By Allah, I am not afraid of him, and he knows this better than anyone,” Bature declared.

He further criticized Hon. Jobe’s leadership, insisting that a politician’s honor lies in serving the people who entrusted them with power. Bature dismissed any suggestion that he was enduring political disrespect for the sake of contesting an election, affirming his belief in destiny and his willingness to step down rather than compromise his principles.

Observers are keenly watching how the situation unfolds, as both political figures hold significant influence within the state.
