Former Kano State Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso has declared that former Governors Ibrahim Shekarau, Abdullahi Ganduje, and incumbent Gov. Abba Yusuf are now politically finished in the state. Kwankwaso, who served as Vice-Presidential Candidate for the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) in the 2027 election, made these remarks during an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
He cautioned that any political success built on treachery is unsustainable, citing his two and a half decades of experience in politics. Kwankwaso specifically criticized Ganduje, who served as his deputy for eight years and later became governor, for abandoning the political structure they built together. He also criticized Yusuf for allegedly betraying those who worked to secure his election as governor.
Despite his influence in Kano, Kwankwaso believes that Yusuf is attempting to supplant him as the dominant political figure in the region.
