But reacting to Kwankwaso's criticism via a statement, Doguwa objected, insisting that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu was laying the foundation for a better and more prosperous nation.

The federal lawmaker stated that Kwankwaso was yet to recover from the defeat suffered in the 2023 presidential election.

Legit.ng reports that Kwankwaso, a former governor and ex-senator, came fourth in the 2023 poll.

Doguwa said:

“Kwankwaso took his hallucination to the moon when he said Nigerians are tired of APC and will change it in 2027.

"As we all know, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is not leaving any stone unturned in his quest to return our country to the path of progress and prosperity for the benefit of all.”

Furthermore, Doguwa said that Kwankwaso lacks the right to speak for the North and Nigerians, adding that the NNPP chieftain's assertion was only "a whimsical statement applicable to himself".
