The Kano State governorship candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, Abba Yusuf, on Monday categorically declared that he has the capacity to floor his fellow contestants to clinch the governorship seat of the state in the forthcoming polls.
In a press statement, signed by the Director of Publicity, NNPP Campaign Council, Hisham Habib, adjudged his principal as the most competent candidate for the race, following the experiences he garnered, over the years, as the commissioner of works during Rabiu Kwankwaso’s administration as governor.
According to Yusuf, “My pedigree and experience is the edge I have, which is far above other contestants for the exalted position of the governorship seat. I also contributed immensely, as the commissioner of works toward the provision of infrastructural development in the state, which is the primary responsibility of the Ministry of Works.
“Over 80 per cent of the network of roads and complex overhead flyovers constructed in Kano were initiated and executed by Kwankwaso’s administration. In my capacity, both as an engineer and workers commissioner, I supervised the construction of the roads and overhead bridges to ensure that they complied, with international standard and specification, both in quality and standard, using my expertise as a professional engineer.
The statement also said that the 70-page blueprint of the governorship candidate will be deployed to further develop and transform Kano State “to another level of economic growth and development, as never witnessed in the history of the state.”
