Drama As Kwankwaso Reveals How Gov Yusuf Sealed A Secret Deal To Join APC
Musa Ilyasu Kwankwaso, has made serious accusations concerning an alleged defection pact involving Governor Abba Yusuf of Kano State.
Addressing journalists in Kano, Kwankwaso who was a three-time Commissioner in Kano, asserted that Governor Yusuf had agreed to switch political allegiance from the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Kwankwaso asserted that this agreement played a decisive role in the Supreme Court’s declaration of Abba Yusuf as the Governor of Kano State.
In his own words: “They (governor and his team) accepted to join the APC at the last minute and all arrangements including power sharing in the state and the party were made at that last minute.
“They agreed to it behind their boss (Kwankwaso) for which he was not happy but had no choice. He later gave some conditions which might not necessarily be agreed to.
“Now that they are yet to fulfil the conditions given them, they have asked for additional time, about five months, to complete the arrangements and come and join the APC,” he disclosed.
However, he clarified that loyal APC members are open to any opposition party member joining their ranks.
“All are welcome to the canopy of a bigger party. All that is required of them is to contribute their positive quota to the progress and development of our party,” he concluded.
