Alhassan Ado-Doguwa, Majority Leader of the House of Representatives, said that there is fire on the mountain in Kano State’s All Progressives Congress (APC) family.
He claimed that the APC in the state has been experiencing silent crises, which will have an impact on the party in the 2023 elections.
The lawmaker, who spoke to journalists expressed confidence that APC presidential candidate Bola Tinubu will build on President Muhammadu Buhari’s achievements.
“It is my hope and it is also the hope of the APC people in Nigeria that Bola (Tinubu) can be able to discharge his duties; that Bola can be able to consolidate the gains earlier laid down by President Muhammadu Buhari,” he said.
However, Ado-Doguwa stated that while Governor Abdullahi Ganduje has administered the state well, those he delegated party affairs to in the state witch-hunt loyal party members, forcing them to defect from the party.
Ado-Doguwa, who represents Kano’s Doguwa/Tudun Wada Federal Constituency, insisted that he has no feud with the governor, as has been widely reported.
“Time has come when I should sincerely come out as a peaceful member of my party and discharge my responsibility,” the lawmaker said.
“I want to say today without any fear of contraction; without any fear of intimidation; without any fear of any quarter or any authority anywhere that there is fire on the mountain as far as the APC is concerned in Kano State. Fire on the mountain – I repeat, there is fire on the mountain.
“This is the right time to say it because we have been going through silent crisis, especially in the area of party administration and politicking with a lot of intrigues and exclusion of members.
“Management and administration of the party is being done exclusively by a few members of the party who are by all standing are not supposed to handle what they are handling in the APC. I want to say for the purpose of clarification that I am talking about party politics in Kano; in our party, the APC,” he added.
