A House of Rep-elect, Abdulmumin Jibrin, has explained why some aggrieved members of the All Progressives Congresses (APC) in Kano State, who left for New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) taught Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje the political lesson of his life.
He said Ganduje did not want them in the APC and practically pushed them out of the ruling party.
Jibrin, who was elected under the platform of the NNPP stated this during an interview on Channels TV’s Politcs Today.
WITHIN NIGERIA recalls that the NNPP defeated the ruling APC during the March 18 governorship election in the state.
He said, “The governor (Ganduje) did not want a lot of us in the APC. So, he practically ensured that he pushed us out of the party. We sat back and got ourselves together and taught him the political lesson of his life.
“We made sure he could not breathe in the APC and at the end of the day he caused the APC 18 House of Representatives members, including about seven super members that the country has invested a lot in to train them.
“He caused the APC 34 State Assembly members. I can tell you that some of those lawmakers are quality lawmakers. They lost because it was a vote against Ganduje.”
