The All Progressives Congress (APC) has strongly condemned Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, alleging that he sponsored a recent violent protest to destabilize the region and tarnish President Bola Tinubu’s image.
In a statement issued on August 15, APC Chief Press Secretary Edwin Olofu accused Yusuf’s administration of directly funding the protest, which turned violent and endangered citizens. The APC described the actions as reckless and urged the Federal Government to investigate the Kano State Government’s role in the unrest.
The APC also dismissed claims that protesters looted documents related to former Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje’s corruption trial, calling these allegations “laughable” and a diversion from the real issues. They emphasized the need for calm and urged residents to support the investigation.
