I don’t need Kwankwaso to win elections– Doguwa


 Alhassan Doguwa, chair of the house of representatives committee on petroleum resources (downstream), says he does not need Rabiu Kwankwaso, a former governor of Kano, to win elections.

 

In a statement on Tuesday, Doguwa dared Abdulmumin Jibrin, a member of the house of representatives, to reveal any scandalous secret about him that would lead to his expulsion from the All Progressives Congress (APC).

 

Doguwa and Jibrin, a member of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), have been at loggerheads for days now.

 

Jibrin had warned the former house whip against insulting Kwankwaso. However, Doguwa said it was Kwankwaso who first insulted APC members in Kano.

 

The seventh term lawmaker described Jibrin as a “political parasite”.

 

“I challenge Abdulmumini Jibrin to drop any bombshells he has against me,” Doguwa said.

 

“I dare him not to spare or keep secret whatever he knows about my political conviction and or commitment to my party, the APC. I remain a loyal and sincere member of the ruling APC.

 “I have, by the grace of Allah, won my elections to the House of Representatives four consecutive times without Kwankwaso. And with Allah SWT, I don’t need him to win my future elections.

 

“I am not a dependent or a political parasite like Abdulmumini, who cannot win an election without someone around him. He had always relied on the political structure of others to win elections.

 

“That was why in 2019, when the courts ordered a rerun election in his (Abdulmumini) constituency like mine, he could not return to the house of representatives because he had nobody around him.

 

“He stood solo and lost out while I won my rerun election by Allah’s grace.”

The lawmaker added that he was Kwankwaso’s colleague “in 1992 during the third republic when you Abdulmumini were in school”.
