Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has asked the people of Kano
to forgive him.
The governor, while attending a Ramadan Tafseer in Al-Fruqan
Jumaat Mosque, Alu Avenue Kano, said he has very few days to leave office,
hence the need to seek forgiveness.
He said on his side, he had forgiven anyone who offended him
and he wanted them to also forgive him.
“With this, I can say that the end of my tenure has come as
a governor of Kano state. I am bidding you farewell and I wish you all the best
in life.
“For those whom we have offended, already our Imam has
preached about forgiveness. From my own side, I have forgiven you all. Whatever
someone said about me I forgive him. I also beg you to forgive me. Thank you, ”
Ganduje said.
In another Tafseer session, headed by Sheikh Nasidi Abubakar
Gorondutse, Ganduje said, “I spent 6 year as a commissioner in Kano, 8 years as
deputy governor and now 8 years as governor of Kano state. So I must thank
Almighty God for this blessings.
“But for this long period, there must be some places where I
did right and where I did wrong. Sometimes someone will commit an offence on
your behalf. For whatever wrong I did, please I seek for your forgiveness,” he
begged.
However, following the release of the twin videos on social
media platforms, there were thousands of reactions from people within and
outside Kano state.
While some people said they had forgiven him, others
commended the governor for seeking forgiveness.
On the other hand, some gave conditions under which they
could accept his plea, with few others saying they would never forgive him.
One Mas’ud Abdulhamid said, “We have forgiven you your
Excellency, may Almighty God forgive us all.”
Reedwan Shagari said “Kano people will miss a good and kind
hearted governor. Ganduje is kind despite all the sabotage people are doing to
him, but he don’t care.”
Yakuba Magaji Mani said “Where is our cleric, Abduljabbar?
Release him if you want us to forgive you.”
“We forgive you Baba. May God increase you in health, ” said
Mustapha Idris Abdullahi.
Mubarak Sani Lambu said “Please Kano people let us forgive
and forget. Let’s forgive Baba Ganduje.”
