Ibrahim Waiya, the Kano State Commissioner for Information and Internal Affairs has debunked claims that Governor Abba Yusuf has lost control of the affairs of the state. He also stated that there are moves by some individuals and groups to distort the realities surrounding recent political defections in Kano. The commissioners in charge of the most powerful and strategic ministries of government remain firmly with His Excellency, the Governor. Therefore, anyone suggesting otherwise is either uninformed or intentionally misleading the public,” Waiya said. Political drama may excite commentators, but governance responds only to structure, legality, and control — and all three pillars of governance remain firmly under the Governor’s grip.”“This administration shall not be distracted, weakened, or compelled to negotiate its mandate,” he added.
