APC Challenges Kwankwaso to Prove Claims Against Yusuf
The Kano State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has called on Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso to substantiate his claims that Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf is involved in efforts to disqualify Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) governorship candidate, ahead of the 2027 elections. APC Chairman Umar Haruna Doguwa issued a statement on Tuesday, labeling Kwankwaso's allegations as false and baseless.
He clarified that the legal action preventing Gwarzo's name from being included on the candidate list was initiated by NDC members against their own party, not by the APC or Governor Yusuf. The APC accused Kwankwaso of trying to distract from the internal issues facing the NDC.
The party emphasized its commitment to democratic principles and insisted that it does not interfere with the electoral process, urging political actors to respect the judiciary's independence and allow institutions to fulfill their constitutional roles without politicization.
