He said:

“I didn’t see anything that either APC or PDP will show or tell Nigerians to get convinced and to vote for them in the coming 2023 elections.
“So, I think people should now come to think of the right party and people to support and vote for so that we can rescue them from the present situation.”

The former Senator and presidential aspirant in the 2019 presidential election said coming back to the state political level wasn’t a good decision, but the need to rescue Kano made him take such action.

“In 2015 we gave the leadership of the state to some [people] thinking that they will make it, but not knowing that it won’t yield any positive outcome. That is why we are back to rescue our state.”
