A former Kano State governor,
Senator Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso and his supporters are in talks to defect from
the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, to either the Peoples Democratic
Party, PDP, or the Peoples Redemption Party, PRP.
Daily Trust reports that members
of Kwankwasiyya, a political movement belonging to the former governor, had
been holding series of meetings on the issue and that they would soon come up
with a stand on the two political parties.
According to the newspaper, a top
member of the movement said that they have agreed to dump the APC but the issue
at stake now is which party they will join, between the PDP and the PRP.
However, a strong pillar in the
Kwankwasiyya movement, Dr Yunusa Adamu Dangwani, also told Daily Trust that
there is no such plan by Kwankwaso or Kwankwasiyya to leave APC.
According to Dr. Dangwani their
leader, Senator Kwankwaso, and the entire members of the Kwankwasiyya group
were still card carrying members of the APC and had no plan to dump the party.
He said, “We have not discussed
anything related to Kwankwaso’s defection from the APC to the PDP or the PRP.
We are still members of the ruling APC.
“We have been hearing this for
some time now. But it is just mere rumor. And we cannot stop people from
speculations. We are APC members who believe in Kwankwasiyya’s ideologies.”
