A Legislative Aide of the Deputy President of the Senate,Alhaji Ado Garba(Tati),says President Bola Tinubu will win Kano State with a landslide in 2027, despite criticisms of his reform policies by some people in the state.
Tati told newsmen in Kano on Sunday that the people of the state would massively vote for President Tinubu and the APC in 2027 because of the goodwill of the Deputy President of the Senate,Barau Jibrin, the people of the state “have been enjoying.”
Such goodwill he explained,include Senator Barau’s women and youths empowerment programmes, scholarship schemes, desilting of dams, provision of Federal and feeder Roads and irrigation schemes in the Kano North Senatorial District which he represents in the National Assembly.
Other initiatives,he said, are distribution of 60 trucks to farmers free, establishment of a Transport Service with over 1000 buses and bringing the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) campus to the Kano North Senatorial Zone.
“All these programmes have impacted positively on the lives of the people of Kano North in particular,and the people of Kano State in general.
Besides,Tati said,Senator Barau’s populist programmes have been attracting more membership for the APC in the state, with the Deputy President of the Senate receiving thousands of NNPP supporters into the APC.
He said Barau had so far received thousands of NNPP supporters who defected to the APC “despite the fact that the State Government is controlled by the NNPP,and we are still counting.”
“Thus, Senator Barau’s initiatives and development programmes coupled with President Tinubu’s realistic and patriotic reform policies will move the people of the state to vote for the President enmasse in 2024,”Tati added.
