The Kano State chapter of the APC has described the defection of Senator Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso to the PDP as self-deception.
The Deputy Chairman of the party in the state, Honourable Shehu Maigari, told Daily Trust that Kwankwaso’s defection to PDP would not in any way affect the victory of President Muhammadu Buhari and Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje during the next round of elections.
Maigari said Kwankwaso had overrated his popularity and would be shocked with the outcome of elections next year which would humble him.
“Kwankwaso’s defection to PDP can be best described as shouting after attack. Kwankwaso’s alliance with Shekarau in PDP will not last because there is no trust and mutual understanding between them,” he said.
He said the people of Kano and Nigerians in general are not fools that could be twisted by the two politicians in order to achieve their political goals.
“The people of Kano and Nigerians have witnessed the development the APC brought to Kano and Nigeria in the areas of security, economy and the fight against corruption. Every right thinking Nigerian should not think of derailing Buhari and Ganduje back to the era of embezzlement and corrupt practices,” he said.
