No Wonder, This is why President Tinubu is supporting deposed Kano Emir

The chairman of the ruling New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) in Kano State, Hashim Dungurawa, has alleged that President Bola Tinubu is destabilizing the state by trying to impose the 15th Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero, on the Emirate because they both share the same Yoruba background. ..Read Full Article

He made this statement on Sunday while addressing journalists in Kano about the achievements of the ruling NNPP in the state over the last year.

Dungurawa argued that there is no justification for giving Emir Bayero special protection by the Nigerian Army, Police, DSS, and other security agencies against the interests of the state government.

He warned that President Tinubu’s alleged interference in the Kano Emirate tussle would backfire against the President in the 2027 elections.

“Your perceived stance on the ongoing Kano Emirate Tussle will surely work against you in 2027 because if you think you can use it to gain ground in Kano, you will realize your mistakes when the chips are down. If the President thinks he will use a few of his kinsmen in Kano and the alleged Bayero’s Yoruba lineage to continue to keep the deposed Emir Aminu Ado Bayero in the State, let him wait for 2027. We will show him that those people will not help him,” Dungurawa warned.

He then urged the President to consider resolving the Kano Emirate issue by ensuring the deposed Emir is removed from Kano.

The NNPP State chairman reiterated that his party would field the national leader of the party, Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, as its presidential candidate in the 2027 election cycle, assuring that Kwankwaso would be the next president of Nigeria.

Dungurawa further called for a review of the 2019 election outcomes, insisting that the immediate-past governor of Kano State and APC national chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje, did not win the second-term election as Kano State governor.
