“We are all convinced that Nasiru Gawuna is the most experienced of all the gubernatorial candidates in Kano State, having worked with the first civilian Governor of Kano State since the return of democracy in 1999, Engr. Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso and his two successors, Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau and Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje.”
He added that:
”Whoever had ever had the opportunity of living in Kano state from 2004 when the then Governor of the State and currently a serving Senator representing Kano Central, Sen. Ibrahim Shekarau first appointed Dr. Nasiru Yusuf Gawuna as Caretaker Chairman of Nasarawa Local Government where the duo hail from could without any iota of doubt, tell you that Dr. Gawuna is a great performer and a silent achiever.”
