Only God Knows What May 29 Holds – Ganduje
BY OUR CORRESPONDENT – Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje says only God knows what would happen on May 29, 2023, and the political party that will take over from him on the said date.
Speaking while commissioning some road projects in the State on Wednesday, Governor Ganduje said; “Only God knows to which government I will transmit power, whether the All Progressives Congress (APC) or the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP)”.
He made the remarks on not knowing the political he will succeed him in office against the backdrop of the ruling APC disputing the governorship poll results as announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and dragging the electoral umpire and NNPP to the Election Tribunal
However, on the projects’ commissioning, Governor Ganduje said; “It’s normal for a government to inherit projects. We inherited some and completed them, and as a government, we are leaving some projects for the incoming administration.
INEC had declared the NNPP’s flagbearer, Yusuf Abba Kabir, as the governor-elect and winner of the election in the state and issued him a Certificate of Return, but the ruling party is currently in court with a promise to reclaim what it described as its “stolen mandate”.
As part of the transition programme, the Kano State Executive Council had in April set up a 17-member Transition Committee for a handing over of the baton to the incoming administration in the state.
The council also approved a 100-member sub-committee comprising members drawn from various Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs).
