Binta Sipikin, spokeswoman of
Rabiu Kwankwaso, senator representing Kano central, says her principal is not
weak.
Sipikin said this in reaction to
President Muhammadu Buhari’s statement that defectors are weak and selfish.
On Tuesday, Buhari said those who
defected from the APC could not align with the vision of his administration.
Kwankwaso left the All
Progressives Congress (APC) for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in July, and
has since declared his bid to run for the office of the president in 2019.
“The weakest whose sense of
expectation do not align with our vision have exited our party,” Buhari had
said while receiving expression of interest and nomination forms for the 2019
presidential election from a group which purchased it for him.
“We now have a party of strong
and patriotic people who are ready to work for a strong Nigeria.”
But Sipikin tackled Buhari,
describing Kwankwaso’s defection as a “patriotic act”.
“He is neither weak nor selfish.
His leaving the APC is a patriotic act,” she said.
