The new Governor of Kano state has played the role of loyal dog after he praised rather than condemn the former governor and his boss, Kwankwaso, for leaving the State with a massive debt of 300 billion Naira.

The new governor of Kano state, Abdullahi Ganduje, on Sunday surprised everybody when he hailed his predecessor, Rabiu Kwankwaso,for leaving the state in debt of over 300 billion naira.
PREMIUM TIMES reports that Ganduje, who spoke to the journalists, said Mr. Kwankwaso should be praised rather than criticised as he transformed the state.
''I don’t think Kwankwaso has committed any crime for living behind these huge liabilities because whatever happened was planned, coordinated and executed with me. I knew everything, the anticipations were high and we thought that things, according to oil money, will continue to be smooth. Suddenly, there was that disgracing drop'',Ganduje said.
''In any case, living behind liabilities from one government to another is a normal thing. Those who are today shouting will do the same or even worst by the time they assumed office. My Governor Kwankwaso deserved to be highly praised for embarking upon the genuine transformational job in Kano state''.
Just so you know, Ganduje was Kwankwaso's deputy; that explains a lot of things.
