adsSunusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, the director-general, Media and Publicity, Kano Government House, has alleged that Rabiu Kwankwaso, former Kano State governor, is indirectly working to secure the re-election of President Bola Tinubu in 2027.

Speaking during an appearance on Arise TV on Wednesday, Dawakin Tofa claimed that recent political alignments involving Kwankwaso point to subtle cooperation with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), despite his opposition posture.

“Kwankwaso has successfully thrown the opposition into disarray,” he said, adding that ongoing political manoeuvres would ultimately favour Tinubu ahead of the next presidential election.

The Kano government spokesperson also alleged that Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf had approached Tinubu over plans to defect to the APC with the consent of Kwankwaso and Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, former deputy governor.

According to him, the move formed part of broader political consultations ahead of the 2027 elections.adsads
