The leader of the Kwankwasiyya Movement and New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) presidential candidate in 2023, Rabiu Kwankwaso has expressed appreciation over the peaceful conduct voters during the Saturday’s local government election.
Kwankwaso made the remark while addressing newsmen shortly after casting his vote at Madobi Ward of Madobi local government of Kano state.
He, however, alleged that the immediate past governor of Kano, Abdullahi Ganduje and the National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress had disbursed large amount of money to the party chairmen to hire thugs to disrupt the election in the state.
“Supporters of the Gandujiyya are planning to disrupt the election process. They gave money to their party chairmen to hire cars, Volkswagen Gulf, and wield dangerous weapons with which to attack voters later in the day and break the ballot boxes.
“This is not proper and we have informed those concerned about this especially the security agencies so that they take the necessary measures.
“We have also informed our youths and supporters to ensure that the election is completed without disruption.
“I am happy that things are going on well at the moment because those that want to disrupt the process usually come out in the afternoon to evening period,” Kwankwaso said.
