War in Kano: Governor Ganduje's Fight With Former Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso Builds Momentum

Posted by Nicholas on Sun 09th Aug, 2015 - tori.ng

The cold war between the former and present governors of Kano State has now blown fully into the daylight.

 
The undercover feud between Kano State governor, Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, and his predecessor, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has degenerated to full blown hostility following the threat by the former to exposed the latter’s stewardship in office.
 
Ganduje revealed when he hosted the leadership of Kano students abroad under the aegis of General Association of Northern Nigeria Students, based in Egypt, the alleged distortion of the state scholarship programme.
 
The long-time political ally and friend to Kwankwaso declared: “For one year, Kwankwaso did not pay a single kobo as tuition fee for our students studying abroad.

“Right now, Kano State government owes those students N3 billion, and painfully, our revenue is dwindling and we would be cautious in handling the situation”.
 
The new Kano number 1 citizen revealed that the delay in the payment of the tuitions fee was caused by the Kwankwaso administration, even as he stressed: “For whatever reasons, the Kwankwaso administration distorted the scholarship programme”.
 
The enraged governor told the leadership of the students: “I’ve decided to let the cat out of the bag so that, as educated people, you would understand where your problems lies”.
