Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf has broken his silence on speculation surrounding his potential defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC). In a recent video, the governor addressed the controversy, stating that he prefers to focus on action rather than engaging in extensive discussions.
The video, which has gone viral, shows Governor Yusuf speaking to a group, where he mentioned that he has never commented on the ongoing discussions because he believes in taking action rather than talking excessively. He referenced a Hausa singer’s statement, “Karamar Magana Tazama Babba,” which translates to “what started small has been magnified.” The governor reiterated his commitment to prioritizing actions that benefit his people, rather than engaging in prolonged conversations.
The speculation surrounding Governor Yusuf’s potential defection to the APC has been a topic of discussion in Kano, with some faction members believing it would be beneficial for the state to align with the federal government. However, others within the New Nigeria’s People’s Party (NNPP) view the potential move as a betrayal of trust, given the support he received from the party’s leader, Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.
The governor’s comments come amid intense speculation about his political future, with some factions in the state supporting his potential move and others opposing it. As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how Governor Yusuf’s decision will impact the political landscape in Kano State and the NNPP. The governor’s commitment to taking action for the benefit of his people will likely be closely watched in the coming days, as the people of Kano State await his next move.
