Kwankwaso described the potential move as a painful setback, emphasizing that the party had worked hard to rescue Kano from the governance of former Governor Abdullahi Ganduje and the APC. He expressed disappointment at the possibility of handing the governorship back “free of charge” and warned of the political consequences if the defection proceeds.

Speaking on the matter, Kwankwaso urged party members to continue praying for the leadership and to discourage any ongoing contacts that might facilitate the defection. He noted that the expected decampment, originally scheduled for Monday, had reportedly been postponed, providing a window of hope for reconsideration.

The NNPP leader reiterated that no defection has taken place yet and expressed optimism that Governor Yusuf would remain aligned with the party, highlighting the support and loyalty he enjoys within NNPP.

Kwankwaso warned that a defection could reshape public perception, suggesting that people might view Ganduje more favorably despite past grievances, underscoring the emotional and political weight of the situation for party members and supporters.
