2023: APC Kano targets presidential primary for Tinubu

The Speaker of the Kano State House of Assembly, Hamisu Chidari, has declared the state readiness to support APC’s national leader Bola Tinubu for the 223 presidency.

He spoke at the inauguration of the Tinubu Support Group and the state steering committees of the TSG in Abuja on Saturday.

According to him, Kano which has the highest number of voters and delegates in the country, would repay Tinubu’s act of helping the President Muhammadu Buhari to become President in 2015.

“My purpose is to kick-start the journey that will take us to the Villa by God’s grace with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the number one citizen of Nigeria,” he said.

“In Kano, being the state with the highest number of delegates, we have already decided and already concluded; we are set to give him at least 98 per cent of delegates in the primaries. Not only that, we are set as usual to give him the highest number of votes so that come May 29, 2023, we will be at the Eagle Square to swear him in as the President.

“All of us in the North-West are aware of the role he played in taking our son, President Muhammadu Buhari, to the Villa. So, we are going to reward him; we are going to pay him back. So, I have assured him of victory. Almost all the delegates from the North-West states are going to vote for him in the next primary elections.”

The Tinubu Support Group inaugurated its 36 state chapters in Abuja on Saturday.
