APC ALLEGES KWANKWASO PLANS TO RULE KANO THROUGH SON

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused former Kano State Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of attempting to maintain political control in the state through his son.

The allegation was made by party officials during a political engagement, where they criticized what they described as efforts to extend personal influence over Kano’s political affairs through family ties.

According to the APC, leadership positions should be determined by merit, democratic processes, and the will of the people rather than political succession within families.

The party argued that Kano voters deserve leaders who emerge through transparent and competitive political processes, free from undue influence or political inheritance.

The allegation has added to the ongoing political rivalry between the APC and Kwankwaso’s political camp, which remains influential in Kano State.

However, supporters of the former governor have dismissed similar claims in the past, insisting that political participation is the constitutional right of every qualified Nigerian, regardless of family background.

Political observers say the exchange reflects the growing intensity of political maneuvering ahead of future electoral contests in Kano and across the country.

The development is expected to fuel further debate as political parties continue to position themselves for upcoming elections.
