The Labour Party in Kano State has described its governorship candidate, Bashir Bashir, who defected to the All Progressives Congress as an impostor who had never been a genuine member of the party.
“However, we are quick to reckon that the impostor in question was not a member of Labour Party. So, he cannot leave the house in which he did not inhabit, “ Abdullahi said.
He maintained that Bashir was not also recognised by the Independent National Electoral Commission as the authentic governorship candidate of the LP in Kano State. So, he came empty and went empty.He said the party would not continue to allow such unpatriotic party members or anybody to trade in the name of the party, “which we have laboured day and night to nurture and consolidate in Kano State”
He restated the commitment of the “genuine party members” to fully support the Obi/Datti movement 2023 hundred per cent in Kano, adding that anybody who wanted to leave could do so as it was their democratic right.All rights reserved.
