The Kano State Commissioner for Rural and Community Development, Alhaji Iliyasu Musa Kwankwaso has described Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso’s defection from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), as both a blessing to Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje and President Muhammadu Buhari.
According to him, the lawmaker’s move to PDP will not affect the fortunes of Governor Ganduje’s re-election in 2019.
“I want you all to wait for the next one month, after the defection of Senator Kwankwaso from the ruling APC and be on the watch out for what would happen, as there would be mass defection of numerous PDP members, as Kwankwaso will neither support Wali’s candidature nor Shekarau.
“I have re-echoed about six months ago that Kwankwaso is no longer a member of our party, the APC and here we are today, my projections have been confirmed.
“Kwankwaso’s presence would only end up driving away a lot of people from the PDP, as it has always been the case wherever he goes.
“Kwankwaso would attempt to change PDP structures in the state, and I am telling you that this would force major stakeholders to move out of the party.
“Let me make it abundantly clear to you that Kwankwaso is just deceiving the public, with his presidential ambition, what he’s after is to maintain his Senatorial seat,” he said.
