I Am 63, You Are 69, Stop Calling Me A Boy - Governor Yusuf Warns Kwankwaso by fergie001(mod): 9:16pm On May 18

Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of ‎Kano State has tackled his estranged benefactor, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, over “frequent attacks” against him, saying his silence should not be misinterpreted as fear.
‎
‎Addressing party supporters during the official affirmation of Sulaiman Kawu Sumaila as the All Progressives Congress (APC) senatorial candidate for Kano South held in Rano on Monday, Governor Yusuf said he would soon start ‘talking’ if pushed to the wall.

‎That is the first time the governor was heard directly tackling the Kwankwasiyya leader in a direct confrontational tone since the duo parted ways earlier this year.
‎
‎He said, “For us, Kano peace is our priority, but if we are pushed to the wall, we will open our mouths and talk. Silence is not a sign of fear.
‎
‎“To even keep quiet is an act of worship, not because we are afraid, not because we are kids. How could a 69-year-old call a 63-year-old a kid? It is just a personal respect that you are slightly elder than me.
‎
‎“However, if an old man does not respect himself and keeps quiet, the younger one will have what to say. So, we are pleading with them in the name of Almighty and His Messenger to keep their mouths shut. Else, you will hear a lot of revelations.”

His comment comes after Kwankwaso told Trust TV in an exclusive interview that Yusuf made a big mistake leaving Kwankwasiyya Movement.

The Nigeria Democratic Coalition (NDC) chieftain also boasted on how the movement made his former personal assistant a Governor.

A brilliant one coming from His Excellency, Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf.

Kwankwanso should know that Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, would not join him in that sty he inhabits and would always be diplomatic with his statements.

As a once respected elderly statesman, Kwankwanso should be knowledgeable enough about choice of word and how best to address peers irrespective of political differences.

Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf has really shown who is the eldest and once again proved that, “Age is just a number”

À 69 year old calling a 63 year old a boy should never be allowed near the presidential villa. They are the hooligans that tend to always turn Nigeria upside down with their born-to-rule mentality. Nonsense!

Well he can talk now he’s governor. He would have called himself a boy just to make Kwankwaso anoint him.

Yusuf is an inlaw to Kwankwaso and their relationship is far back in years. I still don't know why they separated.
