I’m not sure if I will hand over to NNPP or APC – Ganduje

The outgoing Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Gaduje, has revealed that he does not know his administration to hand over power to between the New Nigeria Peoples Party, (NNPP)  and his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Ganduje disclosed this while he commissioning some road projects in Kano and said only God knows if he will hand them over to NNPP or APC.

Newsflash Nigeria had reported that Abba Yusuf of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) had been declared the winner of the 2023 governorship election in the state by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.

Abba Yusuf polled 1,019,602 votes to defeat his closest rival, Nasiru Gawuna of the All Progressives Congress, who polled 890,705 votes.

But the APC is disputing the results of the governorship election and dragged INEC and NNPP to court over the declaration of Yusuf as the governor-elect.

However, Ganduje said he does not know the party his administration had over to come May 29.

While speaking during the commissioning of road projects in the state on Wednesday, May 4, 2023, the governor said only God knows the party that will succeed his administration between his party and the NNPP.

According to Ganduje: “It’s normal for a government to inherit projects. We inherited some and completed them, and as a government, we are leaving some projects for the incoming administration.

“Only God knows to which government I will transmit power, whether APC or NNPP.”

But, in April, the Kano State Executive Council set up a 17-member Transition Committee for a handing over to the incoming administration.

The council also approved a 100-member sub-committee whose constitution will be drawn from various Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs).

Ganduje and his predecessor, Rabiu Kwankwaso played the role of godfather in the last governorship election in Kano, but the outgoing governor lost the contest to Kwankwaso, his former boss.
