Ganduje Orders Deputy Gov Brother’s Reinstatement As APC Chair
![]() |
Kano State Governor, Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje |
Abubakar,
who was a Deputy Vice-Chancellor of Bayero University, Kano, in an audio clip,
was overheard; furiously, stressing that he would not join Ganduje’s
re-election bid in 2019 following the removal of his brother as the APC
chairman in his ward.
The deputy
governor was said to be unhappy for being allegedly sidelined by the
Ganduje-led group in the formation of party structure and leadership at his
ward and local government.
“When they
were campaigning for election, my picture was juxtaposed with the governor, the
President (Muhammadu Buhari) and our leader, Rabiu Kwankwaso.
“But today
at my birthplace, my picture was replaced with someone else’s picture. What
have I done? I do not deserve this even, as a university lecturer at the Bayero
University, where I hope to return in 2019 at the expiration of my tenure.
“I will not
be part of a system, whereby the leadership of my party, the APC, would be
formed at my Mandawari ward, my birthplace, and my brother removed as ward
chairman, without consulting me. I will never continue in this situation,” he
declared
However, the
state Commissioner for Information, Mallam Muhammad Garba, said Ganduje
was shocked over the outburst and had directed the immediate reinstatement of
the removed chairman.
Ganduje, the
commissioner said, called on politicians to always contact party leadership and
politicians holding higher offices before embarking on issues of sensitive
nature like the removal of party chieftains
