Only God Knows Party I Will Transmit Power To – Ganduje

Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje said only God knows the party that he will hand over power to on May 29, 2023.

Ganduje said he is not sure if he will transmit power to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC or the New Nigeria People Party, NNPP.

He stated this at the commissioning of some road projects in Kano.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had declared the candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Yusuf Abba Kabir, as the winner of the governorship election in the state and issued him Certificate of Return.

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has disputed the results and dragged INEC and NNPP to court over the declaration of New Nigeria People Party (NNPP) governorship candidate as the governor-elect.

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

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

But while commissioning the road projects on Wednesday, Governor Ganduje said, “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.”
