“THE KANO STORY”
(The Senator, The Professor & The People…)
After the events of 2015 where Ganduje forced his re-election using federal muscle, this years elections was a “make or make” for Kwankwaso and the people of Kano.
It was the ultimate Ganduje vs Kwankwaso showdown!!!
Kwakwaso, the Presidential candidate of the NNPP and former Minister of defense, Senator and Governor presented Abba Kabir Yusuf for Governor.
Ganduje aka Gandollar, outgoing Kano State Governor presented Nasir Gawuna of the APC for the Governorship seat of Kano State.
The NNPP were huge favorites to win after Kwankwaso won over 30 of the 44 LGAs in Kano and the result was going their way until it was collation time.
APC thugs tried disrupting the collation of results, Kwankwaso sent top NNPP members to the collation center but nothing worked
Okezie Ikpeazu single-handedly destroyed PDP in Abia State and I’m super happy.
He had the chance to change history, he was an “Aba Boy” and his campaign slogan was, “Nwa Aba ga aru Aba” meaning “An Aba boy will rebuild Aba” but immediately he won, he forgot all his promises.
He destroyed and never rebuilt, most of the shops he destroyed in Ariaria, till date, he hasn’t rebuilt them.
He went on a spree of tyranny, levies everywhere, owing salaries with reckless abandon, a former lecturer that knows how important salaries are to civil servants.
And he did it with impunity, like nobody can do anything to me.
This man tear-gassed elderly people that were protesting peacefully for their pensions.
ABSUTH Doctors owed over 2years salaries and when the hospital was shut down, he didn’t even care.
I thank God my father was firm with me, if not, by now I for don “Otilo”, I would have been a “Goner”.
Thanks to my “stubborn” nature and my father’s reserved nature, we didn’t do a lot of holidaying in our relatives growing up before you will disgrace the family NAME outside.
Whatever we needed was at home, so stay home.
My father cherished his NAME so much and did everything he could to protect it.
I remember after my Junior WAEC, my favorite uncle that was living in Ghana came home and told my dad, he wanted me to come for the holidays in Ghana.
Happy New Month greetings to all Obidients, this new month of March will prove to fulfill all our dreams.
I know by now most of us would be waking up to the heartbreaking news of INEC announcing Tinubu, President.
Please don’t be dismayed.

Our journey to reclaim Nigeria from the hands of the establishment that has decided to impoverish us was never going to be easy.
I want to let you all know that the journey is not over, it’s just about to get started so get ready, we have work to do.

In the coming days, you will be provoked into tribal and religious wars by the opposition, I beg you, don’t fall for their tricks, it would only divide and make us weak.
Our principal, H.E. Mr. Peter Obi is not an ethnic or religious project, he is a NATIONAL PROJECT.
