The All Progressives Congress in Kano is pushing back hard. The party has dismissed Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso's allegation that the APC and Governor Abba Yusuf conspired to omit the NDC governorship candidate's name from the INEC list.
The APC has denied any involvement in the missing name, rejecting Kwankwaso's claim as unfounded. No further details from the party's response have been confirmed beyond the flat-out dismissal.
With tensions already running high in Kano's political circles, this back-and-forth between the APC and Kwankwaso signals that the dispute over the NDC candidate's exclusion is far from settled.
