From Desmond Mgboh Kano
Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, has said his performance in office will speak for him in the 2027 elections.
“What I am worried about is not re-election. I am more concerned about delivering the dividends of democracy on the mandate given to me in this first tenure. I want the good people of Kano to judge me by my performance at the end of this tenure,” he said during the monthly women empowerment programme.
He lamented how enemies of the state disguised as opposition members were determined to create political tension.
“We know those people who were massively rejected in both 2019 and 2023. We won against them at a time when we had no political office – not even a councillor. But Allah made it possible for us to win with a landslide victory.”
Yusuf further cautioned the leadership of the APC in Kano State to refrain from making inciting statements and hate speeches that could scare unsuspecting voters who are eager to exercise their civic rights.
“I am destined to be a governor. It is my total belief and submission to the will of Allah that if He so wills, I will serve a second term. If not, I won’t. So why should I bother myself?”
