Their greed

Mr. Maitangaran said apart from the high debt owed the local contractors, Governor Kwankwaso’s administration had a preference for foreign contractors for projects in the state.

In his response, the governor said though he was not sure of the total amount owed the contactors, he would pay off a large chunk of it before leaving office on May 29.

the emboldened is a shame.

David Mark is likely to retain his presidency seat from the way things are going...

I have information from a reliable source about some of the big wigs in the APC visiting the present principal staff of the 7th national assembly of who are PDP trying to win them over & after stiff resistance the decided to work underground for them so as to still clinch the position in the 8th assembly. I witnessed some of this visits & some of this persons if made known to you, you will swear with your life that they are not capable of doing such.
I like politics in Nigeria.

Thank you for pointing out,many of our readers don't see that part. Owing N60b debt to contractors. Change indeed!

PDP would need APC lawmakers to clinch the top seats in the NASS so PDP can't play that game without APC being aware. This is politics. PDP's plan is to trash APC's zoning formula and vote for candidates that aren't approved by APC as this would divide the APC

u guys dont like being realistic, dis aint national elections where some ghost voters can be accredited without being noticed. we hv 109 senators, apc has 60 while pdp has 49. by d wa its going apc has 3 potential contestant for that senate seats n by this outcome u all knw the 60 votes has been shared n am not sure d best candidate has up to 40 of apc votes to his credit. pdp's 49 votes is thr doing enormous press up n skipping using live wire. when d floor is opened for nomination of new officers, apc will have 3 nominees n u will hear pdp man nominating his own party man, na thr things will fall apart. pdp will hv 49 sure votes n 60 will be divided amongst apc candidates.
who becomes d senate presido, na pdp!
n trust me if northern cabal tries to scheme buhari's candidate out of site, he will definitely turn to pdp for help.
this will be the very first litmus test apc will undergo to knw whether they indefatigable!

Mark is in favour of Ahmed Lawan of yobe state.
But if it becomes obvious that other apc guys will not sopot lawan,then lawan will have to sopot mark.
Mark already had 48 seats intact.He only needs 10 apc to back him.

10 too much na, na just 7votes him need. 49 plus 7 equals 56.
this election almajiri no go vote like dem do for march28.

Short Changed!

Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano State has warned that the delay by the leadership of his All Progressives Congress, APC, to zone positions in the National Assembly leadership may work in favour of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

The two-term governor, who was also elected senator in the March 28 polls, said he had feelers that some APC lawmakers were already working for the PDP.

??If the APC and indeed the president-elect allow PDP to snatch victory at the National Assembly, then it will be an unusual scenario which they should pay for,?? he said while addressing journalists on Sunday.

The APC won majority seats in both chambers of the National Assembly and is expected to produce the leadership of both the Senate and the House of Representatives, positions held by the current ruling PDP since 1999. However, the rules of the National Assembly do not make party affiliation a pre-condition for seeking leadership position. Over one month after securing the majority seats, however, the APC is yet to agree on which zones of the country would produce what positions in the National Assembly.

Mr. Kwankwaso also said he would continue to advise his successor and current deputy, Umar Ganduje, when the latter is sworn in as governor on May 29. He also said he has no fear about the opposition??s decision to challenge his election at the tribunal.

In a related development, local contractors who handled various projects for the state government accused the governor of refusing to pay over N60 billion debt owed them.

Speaking at a press conference, the Chairman of the Nigeria Indigenous Contractors Association, Kano branch, Auduwa Maitangaran, said the debts have affected the lives of most of his members.

??We today find ourselves in a total mess with banks and other debtors nagging them to pay back what they have collected from them,?? he said.

Mr. Maitangaran said apart from the high debt owed the local contractors, Governor Kwankwaso??s administration had a preference for foreign contractors for projects in the state.

In his response, the governor said though he was not sure of the total amount owed the contactors, he would pay off a large chunk of it before leaving office on May 29.

He told journalists that his administration was still executing projects and paying contractors.

Mr. Kwankwaso said he inherited N77 billion and $200 million debt from his predecessor and had settled a large part of it.
