Governor Abdillahi Ganduje of Kano state has said that the people of the Northern part of the country have no other presidential aspirant to support than the National leader of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
He made this remark at the inauguration of a office for northern youth professionals for Tinubu (an organization that supports Tinubu’s presidential ambition) held along Hedej, a road in Kano on Monday.
The Governor who was represented at the occasion by the Managing Director of Kano Dan’agundi, said it has become necessary for northerners to reciprocate the gesture done to them by the people of South West in 2015 where they supported Retired Muhammadu Buhari to become president.
He said Northern Nigeria has no option but to support the Yoruba race and Tinubu. if I ask you to give the name of one person who supported the Northern candidature of Muhammadu Buhari, it will be Tinubu.“It is time for us to show whether we are truly sons of our parents or not. This is the time and we are with Bola Ahmed Tinubu.“His Excellency Dr Abdillahi Ganduje is part and parcel of this struggle, so we’re with Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
He went further saying that the time has come for the Northerners to show and tell the world that they are supporting Tinubu’s presidential ambition to enable him to take the country to greater heights noting that Tinubu’s a patriotic Nigeria and if given the mandate to rule the country, he would address the lingering security challenges and bring socio-economic development to the country.
“If we look at the various developmental projects and programmes he executed while he was the governor of Lagos State, we have no doubt that he has the capability to address the multi-faceted challenges facing the country.“Northerners have no better presidential candidate to support than Tinubu because he is the one who supported and empowered the youth by providing them job opportunities in addition to allowing them to participate in politics without any discrimination,It was Bola Ahmed Tinubu who persistently stood firm and ensured that the people of the South-West supported Muhammadu Buhari from the APC primary up to the presidential election where he was victorious,” Ganduje said.
