Senator Ibrahim Shekarau, a former Governor of Kano State,
has confirmed his movement out of Kwankwaso’s New Nigeria People’s Party NNPP,
although he has not in clear terms stated which party he is decamping to.
Shekarau while speaking to a crowd of supporters, Monday at
the Kano Foundation office along BUK Road, accused Former Governor Rabiu Musa
Kwankwaso of not only betraying him but humiliating him.
The former governor who went down memory lane over what
transpired between him and Kwankwaso during his brief stay in the NNPP noted
with dismay that, he was alone, given forms to contest his Senatorial seat
leaving his teaming supporters to wallow in destitution.
He said on 5th May 2022 long before he and Kwankwaso joined NNPP, “I personally met him at his country home and discussed extensively my decisions to follow him to his new party and he expressed deep happiness”.
“And still on 11-5-2022 I still met Kwankwaso because since
our last meeting we were not able to meet, and I reminded him of a proposal I
submitted to him during our last meeting”.
The proposal according to Shekarau was the list of my
supporters who were seeking different political offices, and when I talked to
Kwankwaso about it he said he was aware of it and definitely something would be
done.
“Similarly, on 16-5-2022, Kwankwaso came to my house at
about 9pm and we still discussed extensively the same issues he even called
five people including Abba Kabir, Kawu Sumaila, Alhassan Rirum and two others
and presented them to me as those to make the lists of contestants”.
“During the meeting which led to my decamping, Kwankwaso
came with my Senatorial Form alone and sneaked it to me telling me that I was
the first to receive it and I asked him the ones for my supporters he said it
would be done”.
“Since then Kwankwaso kept deceiving me and only for him, to
much later say we are late for my supporters to be on the lists, and there was
nothing he could do”.
Shekarau said with all these and many more deceit he has no
place in NNPP because his Party Politics always goes with his supporters and
any attempt to throw them away would be vehemently rejected.
