Governor Kwankwaso, who made this statement while speaking in an interview with newsmen at his office on Thursday, accused the People's Democratic Party (PDP) of being behind Adamawa State Governor Murtala Nyako's impeachment saga.
Kwankwaso noted that all the avenues to ensure Nyako retains his seat are being explored. He further accused the PDP-led Federal Government of fuelling crisis in states not governed by the PDP.
He described the case of the governorship election in Ekiti state, in which PDP candidate, Fayose won, as an example of the ruling party using their influence in the election, while saying a repeat will happen in the forthcoming Osun state governorship election on August 9.
Meanwhile, Kwankwaso decried what is happening in Rivers, Nasarawa, Edo, Osun, Kano and Adamawa states respectively, where they accused the Federal Government of doing everything to destabilise the states.
He alleged that recently, a federal minister invited some Kano Assembly members to Abuja and advised them to defect to the PDP.

Kwankwaso also criticized the withdrawal of corruption charges against Muhammad Abacha while blasting the government saying that any person caught with the crime of corruption would be freed once he joins the ruling party.
It was reported on June 20 that a top source in Kano said that Mohammed Abacha, whom the Presidency considers as one of the most influential young politicians in Kano, had primed him to challenge the rising political clout of Governor Rabi'u Kwankwaso and secure victory for PDP in 2015.
Meanwhile, Kwankwaso is said to be facing severe opposition from the Presidency, particularly, after appointing the former Central Bank of Nigeria Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, as the Emir of Kano against the wish of the Presidency and his party, which reportedly preferred a different person.
It would be recalled that in June Kwankwaso had accused President Jonathan of plotting to kill him saying: "Hold Jonathan responsible for whatever happens to me, my family or even the people of Kano."
