A Chieftain of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Buba Galadima, has urged President Bola Tinubu to be mindful of Kano State politics. Galadima stated this in an interview with Arise Television on Monday.
He said, “The federal government and President Bola Tinubu need to be cautious with Kano politics. It will destroy his presidency.”
He berated federal support for one group over another in Kano’s politics, saying that chieftaincy titles should not be influenced by federal authorities.
The NNPP chieftain emphasised the resilience and determination of Kano’s people.
He further expressed a sense of hopelessness about seeing the Nigeria he envisioned for future generations, attributing his political shifts to principles rather than personal gain.
Speaking on the past elections, Galadima recounted how the NNPP defeated its opponents despite manipulations and forceful tactics used against them.
He said in 2011 and again in 2023, the NNPP overcame these challenges to emerge victorious.
Galadima criticised the judiciary’s handling of electoral disputes, highlighting instances of alleged bias and manipulation.
He said the governor of Kano should assert his authority, even against police advice, to maintain his credibility.
