The Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on National Assembly Matters (House of Reps), Suleiman Abdulrahman Kawu Sumaila, has declared his intention to contest for the Kano South senatorial seat.
Kawu, who has served as a member of the House of Representatives, declared his intention for the seat at a well-attended event in Sumaila.
At the event, attended by Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, who was represented by the Commissioner of Local Government Affairs, Murtala Sule Garo, Kawu said he had all it takes to represent the zone.
“Being a founding member of APC, a former gubernatorial aspirant in Kano and member of the 2015 Presidential Campaign Council of APC is an added advantage.
“It is unfortunate that after we formed the ruling party, APC, on the principle of change and radical revolution, some elements hijacked the process and made it difficult to achieve the set objectives.
“Despite all the difficulties and challenges, we will do our best to uphold the manifesto of our great party, APC. If elected into the Senate, I will join hands with progressive minded Nigerians in order to move this country forward,” he said.
