Kano State Governor, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, on Tuesday in Kano debunked reports that he is under pressure to drop his presidential ambition for another candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Other aspirants are former head of state, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), former vice president, Atiku Abubakar and the publisher of Leadership Newspapers, Sam Nda Isaiah.

The party’s presidential primary is slated for December 29.

Kwankwaso, while speaking to reporters in his office on Tuesday, urged the APC leadership to avoid the mistake of adopting a consensus presidential candidate, arguing that it will spell doom for the party.

According to him, such arrangement may deny a popular candidate a ticket.

His words: “I am not under any pressure to step down for anybody, in as much as nobody has contacted me to step down, doing that will not augur well for the party.

“You see, so many people are used to either small parties, like medium sized parties, where people sit down and choose somebody in a room.

“Now, we are talking of APC, a mega party, which is not ANPP, which is not CPC, ACN, or APGA or new PDP. I always tell people to look at the example of the PDP since 1999 and in each election, people have to go for primaries, not arranged elections, real election, primary election, even when we have sitting President in 2003 and 2011, there were elections, very serious elections.

“That is why PDP has been winning all along and all others who are involved in stage managing primary elections always lose elections.

“As fate will have it, PDP has now decided to do their own primaries in the Villa, while the APC will hold their’s in the field, which clearly shows that APC will win, while the PDP will lose the elections in 2015″.

Let Kwankwaso keep deceiving the gullible PDP Supporters. According to what I read online yesterday, he'd purchase the APC Presidential form to pretend as if he's contesting, but on the D-day, he would withdraw from the game and ask all his supporters to queue behind the People's General.

I just pity Atiku because of the humiliation he would encounter come December 2nd!

fitzmayowa:


Just wondering...Are you saying kwankwanso will just waste 27million like that or what judging from your post

sleekpro:
I was thinking this APC, with this noise they have been making, will even last for a while, at least to give PDP the run for their moneyak I didn't know they came crashing this soon.
Jona just d laff you guys!

To you, it might be a waste of cash. But they know the political murder the 27m is capable of committing. That cash alone can render Atiku's billons of Naira useless!



Who's this nitwit?! Y'all have been predicting the downfall of APC, yet, it's been waxing stronger. Is it not yet time for goons like you to know that APC is already getting to the promised land?! That's how y'all will continuing crooning APC won't last, without knowing that Buhari has been sworn in as the President!

Y'all predicted that it would not be registered, but today, we can proudly say 1yr gone. What about the much crooned National Convention, they conducted it and new leaders were elected, but the party never collapsed as predicted by you. Now, y'all have started your usual prediction [which's bound to fail] again. Is it not high time you started advising the Otuoke Failure to start arranging his luggage and get ready to leave Aso Rock cos a new Caretaker is coming in?!

Mogidi:


I hope Kwankwaso thinks well before reapplying to join the PDP when the primaries are rigged for Buhari. We don't accept APC rejects in PDP.

SLIDEwaxie:
as far as PDP is concerned, u don't exist!

U are just another rant and madman on the internet they refused to arrest because u're good for business: free ads

A7:
Why y'all bums all crazy on rushing to create redundant threads about GmB lately? That's stupi.d you know.

What makes it even more stupid is the dullard that started this thread have no idea on what he just pasted, even though the message was written in simple english he still can't comprehend kwankwaso's statement.

You can call anything you want, the question is if kwakwaso and atiku are not in support of buhari being the president, may be you will be the one to put him there.
Day dreamer like you!

If you don't know, tinubo will sell the ticket to the highest bider, and you and I know that the old general can not afford to buy it, or will he still collect loan to do so?

Wake up from you slumber bro!

Unfortunately Buhari hates primaries.

Remarkable:
in other wwords, he is part of an act? a primary election that is being stage-managed?
is APC allegic to being upfront, open and being honest at all? (Just before you take it personal as APShitters always do, that was a rhetorical question as they say that politics is a dirty game...).

AIRDIG:

Does the fact and figure below paint a portrait of an ethnic & religion fascist?
Are the media & Internet warriors feeding us with lies?
Are we trapped in the cycle of "crowd mentality"; parroting the lies & calumny of his enemies?
Are we capable of critical thinking and common-sense logic? You be the judge!
