Heightened Security At Kano Govt House over Gov Yusuf's rumoured Defection by politicoNG(op): 9:05pm On Jan 12
Security Tightened At Kano Government House Amid Governor Yusuf's Defection Rumours
The Kano State Government House, on Monday, witnessed an unusual presence of security operatives following growing speculations about an alleged plan by Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf to defect from the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP).

Combined teams of combat-ready security operatives drawn from the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) and the Department of State Services (DSS) were seen mounted at the main entrance and other access points to the Government House. Armoured Personnel Carriers (APCs) belonging to the security agencies were also positioned at the main gate and the roundabout leading into the premises.

If it's a popular move as Agbadorians will have us believe, why is this the case? The defection was slated for today but it has been indefinitely postponed again for the third time. What is happening? Lessons!

Kano is divided between Kwankwaso (60%), APC (30%), Atiku (8%), Others including Peter Obi (2%).

If Kwankwaso is on the ballot for ADC in 2027 as VP, ADC will get 1.2 million votes in Kano, APC gets 550,000 votes.

Yusuf's defection to APC will only benefit his re-election because he won't need to worry about any opposition having more campaign money, but it won't benefit Tinubu as long as Kwankwaso doesn't move to APC.

A united opposition will beat Tinubu in 2027: https://www.nairaland.com/8597242/why-atikuobi-couldnt-defeat-buhari

Abeg if you want to defect, do so and let us hear word...

One thing is very certain...

Being the APC Governor of Kano State doesn't mean Jagaban will win the State...

If you think that I am lying, go and ask Ganduje

COMRADES, the fear of Kwankwaso in Kano is the beginning of wisdom. Wait a minute, if I may ask, these governors cross-carpetting to apc, what did they see there attractive? Or do they think Tinubu would have his way the second time/ term?

This man is not even a heavyweight politician but he's been making noise about his deflection going to a month now.

Can't he just defect in peace and let people hear word?

Jagaban has been trying to bag Kwankwaso, when he couldn't, he went for the alternative option.

Kwakwa the paperweight politician that sees himself as heavyweight should just relax. Arrogance and over calculation seems to be killing him.

If he accepted vp slot from Obi then just to grab power, I’m sure by now he will be the one ruling because that lady called Obi would have renegaded power to him but out of pride he missed out. Now, Tinubu’s APC tried to woo him, again out of pride, he gave bizarre conditions. Presently, he’s been outsmarted with the only governor his party has, in my opinion, he should just quit politics and start Fura de nunu’s business.
