The Digest:
Former All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman Abdullahi Ganduje has described Rabiu Kwankwaso as a "political bird" that can perch anywhere, moving from one platform to another. Speaking on BBC Hausa, Ganduje said Kwankwaso's frequent party switching signals a political decline. He noted that Kwankwaso's defection to the ADC and now to the NDC would not pose any challenge to the APC. Ganduje also claimed that Kano Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf anticipated these challenges, which informed his decision to join the APC. He added that the APC now has 31 state governors, an unprecedented feat.
Key Points:
- Ganduje dismisses Kwankwaso as a political drifter with no stable base.
- He claims Kwankwaso's new coalition will collapse due to conflicting interests over the presidential ticket.
- Ganduje says Governor Yusuf joined the APC to ensure political stability in Kano.
- The APC now boasts 31 state governors, according to Ganduje.
- The former chairman insists Kwankwaso's defections pose no threat to APC.
Watch whether the NDC coalition holds together or crumbles over presidential ticket disputes as Ganduje predicts.
