Kano State Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has assured that the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) and its presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu will confidently fend off competition from other parties in the state in the fast-approaching general elections.
The governor said this, on Sunday, when he was addressing a sea of supporters who thronged major streets of the ancient city of Kano for the One-million March Permanent Voter Cards, PVC, walk to show support for the APC presidential candidate.
The solidarity walk which was organized by coalition of 2,000 Tinubu Support Groups (TSG), under the leadership of Baffa Babba Dan’agundi, who doubles as the Managing Director of Kano Road Transport Agency (KAROTA) saw women and men, old and adults displaying banners, posters, fliers with differing campaign inscriptions as they donned uniformed aso-oke cap, T-shirts, face caps and many others bearing Tinubu and his running mate, Kashim Shettima.
The exercise began at the Emir’s palace and terminated at the Race Course field.
Ganduje, in his address, remarked that the party and its candidates stand a better chance in the elections because all members are united with all hands on deck.
His words: “There is no crisis within the rank and file members of the APC and we are all united to work for the victory of the party in 2023.
“You can see that we promise one million PVC show march, but it turned out to be three million, indicating that the state is for APC’s presidential candidate in 2023.
“Come rain, come shine, the state is for the APC and nothing will make the electorate not to cast their vote for the party, because the teeming masses have seen the handiwork of the party,” Ganduje said.
