The Senator representing Kano South, Abdulrahman Kawu Sumaila, has warned the Governor of Kano State, Abba Kabir Yusuf, not to please the former governor of the state, Rabiu Kwankwaso, at the detriment of the people.
There have been rumours within the Kwankwasiyya Movement and the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) that Kwankwaso exerts excessive influence over Yusuf’s administration, with some claiming he dictates key policy decisions.
Speaking with newsmen yesterday in Abuja, Sumaila warned that millions of Kano citizens will not forgive the governor if he fails them.
He stressed that Yusuf must also unite and work with Kwankwaso in the interest of the people.
The lawmaker said the biggest danger is to betray God, who did everything for him to become governor of Kano State.
He said, “If it is one person, you can seek his forgiveness and he will forgive you. However, if you betray over 20 million people or the few who supported you, I am pleading with Governor Abba to avoid this danger
“He must also know that his government is not only about the rights of Kwankwaso or members of Kwankwasiyya but there are also the rights of NNPP members and all other persons that joined hands and supported him till he became the governor.
“We also have rights that must be protected. That is the first thing that he must be conscious about.
“He must also protect the rights of APC members who did not even vote for him. It must be the same with the members of the PDP and other smaller parties.”
