Father of Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, Musa, has backed the lawmaker’s former friend and now foe, Abdullahi Ganduje for a second term as Kano state’s governor.
According to the Daily Trust, Kwankwaso senior paid a visit to the Kano state governor where he gave him his support.
He praised Ganduje for the ‘good work’ he’s doing in the state.
“When you came in after your inauguration on 29th May, 2015, we were absolutely sure that you would bring development to all nooks and crannies of the state. And Alhamdulillah, that is what you are doing. So we need more of this development,” Kwankwaso Senior said

“We are ready to support you and get you closer to the people. We appreciate the good work you are doing for your people. We believe in your leadership style as a people-oriented governor who believes in developing his people in all aspects of life.”
Ganduje was grateful for the remarks of support stating: “We are in our home. Here you are with your children. We came to visit our father and get his blessing.
“We are sure you will give us what we are here for. So when you accept to support my gubernatorial race, we are not surprised because this is just a case of a father and his son.”
Ganduje and Kwankwaso aren’t exactly on the best terms after falling out before the 2015 elections.
