Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of Kano State has dismissed speculations of a rift with his political mentor, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, saying no individual or group can create division between them.

He described Senator Kwankwaso as a visionary and selfless leader committed to the progress of the people.

“God has blessed us with a God-fearing and selfless leader in him, a man who loves the people of Kano State and Nigeria, and works tirelessly for their progress and development,” the governor said.

Yusuf restated his dedication to developing the state based on the Kwankwasiyya principles of service, accountability, and empowerment.

In his remarks, Kwankwaso thanked the NNPP National Chairman, Dr. Ajuji Ahmed, party leaders from over 30 states, and loyal supporters for their continued dedication.

He urged members of the NNPP and the Kwankwasiyya Movement across the country to remain united and committed to the growth and success of the party.
