The All Progressives Congress (APC) has called on the security agencies to arrest and investigate former presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in the 2023 elections, Engr. Rabiu Kwankwaso over accusation that the Federal Government was breeding Boko Haram insurgency in Kano.
Addressing newsmen on Tuesday, Kano State’s chairman of the APC, Abdullahi Abbas called on the security to drill Kwankwaso to mention those involved in the act of planning to destabilise the state.
Kwankwaso who is also the leader of the Kwankwasiyya Movement in Kano alleged that President Bola Tinubu-led administration was breeding Boko Haram terrorists in Kano due to the deployment of security to protect the 15th Emir of Kano Aminu Bayero at his Nasarawa Palace in the metropolis.
“We wish to call on Nigeria’s security agents to arrest and investigate this man to reveal the identity of the people he referred to as enemies of the state working for the Federal Government to breed Boko Haram terrorists and insurgents,” the APC chairman demanded.
Kwankwaso made the allegation on Monday during the flag-off ceremony for the construction of the 85-kilometre rural road at his hometown, Madobi.
The APC chairman condemned the claims by Kwankwaso while expressing the likelihood of a sinister plan to cause unrest in the state.
He further alleged that before and during the 2023 election, youths, mostly dropouts that were loyal to Kwankwaso intimidated the public by physically attacking them and destroying their property.
Abbas also alleged that Kwankwaso and some of his associates even threatened judges of the election tribunal in the state during the legal battle that brought the NNPP to power in the state.
The APC chairman in Kano also alleged that since the controversial appointment of the 14th Emir of Kano Muhammadu Sanusi II, armed thugs have been deployed to the Emir’s palace, where they pose a threat to the neighborhood, buying and selling illicit drugs and perpetrating immoral acts in the name of protecting the Emir.
