The Kano State Commissioner for Information, Muhammad Garba, has stated that the state will vote en masse for the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, because just one local government can deliver more votes than the entire South-East.

Garba further prophesied that Tinubu would defeat his NNPP opponent, former governor of the state Rabiu Kwankwaso, in the 2023 general elections, much as MKO Abiola defeated Bashir Tofa in 1993.

Garba spoke at a lecture hosted by the Kaduna State chapter of the League of Veteran Journalists under the topic “Let’s Talk Nigeria,” in partnership with Arewa House and Hamdala Hotel.

“I’m confident Kano state will produce lots of votes come 2023.

“The votes from Nasarawa Local Government of the state alone is more than the votes of the entire South East combined.
