Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, has said two governors in the Peoples Democratic Party would soon defect to the All Progressives Congress.
Kwankwaso said this when he paid a courtesy visit on his Kwara counterpart, Abdulfatah Ahmed, on Monday.
He was in Ilorin as part of his consultations for the presidential ticket of the APC for the 2015 election.
The governor described APC members as practical people with extensive grassroots reach to tackle corruption and other national malaise.
“Our economy can never be good in a situation of crisis; our economy can never be good in the face of corruption,” Kwankwaso said.
He said in line with the constitution, the APC would explore the possibility of consensus presidential candidate within the ambit of democratic culture.
He commended the Kwara State Government for initiating poverty alleviation and employment generation programmes to reduce youth unemployment and restiveness.
Ahmed assured that the choice of the APC presidential candidate for 2015 general elections would be devoid of acrimony and strengthen the party.
Ahmed said Nigeria had the misfortune of bad leadership and expressed hope that APC would evolve more qualitative leadership after taking over the Federal Government.
He said APC was the fastest growing party in Nigeria and the only truly national political party, given the nature of its emergence as an off shoot of mega parties.

ReplyDeleteThe Governor might be good but he lacks manner of approach. He does not have respect for the Federal Government and because of that, I think he cannot also respect any other citizen when he holds power. He is simply arrogant and it disqualifies him. Buhari is looks uncivilized and Islamist. The only person I can take in APC is Atiku because he is more civilized and experienced but Jonathan is better than all of them but he is always slow and soft heartened in taking decisions on security unlike Obasanjo that is why Boko Haram escalated to this height and Chibok girls are still captives till now, apart from that Jonathan is the best President in economical aspect.
ReplyDeletedid i hear Kwakwaso says consensus candidate? well if he says so, what then is the difference between APC and PDP? i have not seen the kind of Governance we are hoping for in any state in Nigeria yet.
ReplyDeleteur ppl are shameless.u cal PDP all d bad names but yet u welcum dia defected members wit nigerias stolen wealth.
ReplyDeletemr anonymous...but PDP also did the same thing they,PDP not only welcome APC deleted member they also used nigeria money to entice them....
DeleteMeanwhile, we've come to realise that this switching from one party to the other is all about self interest,therefore it has no impact on most of us. When you think your cards won't play well in one party,all you need to do is consult and find out where if favours you. It's not about us,you can switch as many tines as you can for all I care.
