Kano as they say is a swing state.
The APC Presidential candidate believes the Ulama’s are very pivotal in the society and would be a milestone in achieving victory come 2023.
For Bola Tinubu the Islamic clerics are more than teachers and the electorate, more than students and listeners who are key in the electoral process.
Senator Kabiru Gaya and other supporters of the APC who are in company of the Presidential Candidate share the same sentiment with their leader, Bola Tinubu.
Many of the stakeholders believe the APC have better chances of winning election in Kano than others, in spite of the growing influence of the New Nigerian Peoples’ Party NNPP .
Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje who spoke in the hausa dialect expressed delight at Bola Tinubu’s visit and assured him of more support from many other key stakeholders in the state for victory to be achieved come 2023.
The All Progressives Congress Presidential Candidate’s next point of call was the Government House where he inaugurated an empowerment programme initiated by APC House of Representative’s Candidate for Dawakin Tofa/Tofa/Rimingado Constituency, Abba Ganduje where 70 youths were given kiosks, point of sale machines and start up capitals.
He then paid a courtesy visit to the Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero at his palace.
