Kano is the only state being governed by your party, NNPP in Nigeria, how did you rate your performance under Abba Kabir Yusuf as governor? HASHIM SULAIMAN: It is to my pleasure to rate our state very high in terms of good developmental projects because our governor is doing his best to build Kano to an exemplary domain. And I am certain that his excellency governor Abba Kabir Yusuf would deliver despite challenges which are the tradition in a democratic dispensation nowadays.
Under two years of existence, Kano state governor has achieved a lot in every sector because our party, the NNPP, has the best manifestos that correlate with the present democratic practice more than the other parties.
Can you briefly share some achievements recorded by NNPP government. in Kano state?
HASHIM SULAIMAN: Although time will not allow me bring out all our success stories at this point, I assure you that his excellency Governor Abba Kabir is succeeding in promoting education to a satisfactory stage and if you go back to the 2025 budget, you will find out that education received the lion share because education remains our focus. Furthermore, the Kano State government usually sponsors domestic and foreign scholarships where so many students of less privileged families were sent to different countries to study and return with better and quality education which is another landmark achievement.
Under the NNPP administration, Kano State is experiencing greater peace and progress. Governor Yusuf remains dedicated to transforming the state into a peaceful one by providing adequate vehicles and security equipment to address threats to our peaceful coexistence in both rural and urban areas..
Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf is working tirelessly to improve healthcare delivery by reaching the masses and focusing on rehabilitating health facilities and hospitals across the state. These efforts will undoubtedly strengthen his policies of providing the best healthcare services to people’s doorsteps.
I am very much impressed about how our governor is strictly following due process in discharging his duties under the NNPP manifestos that is why Kano remains the best state.
Governor Yusuf clocks 62 years, what is your prediction on his administration as his party Chairman?
HASHIM SULAIMAN: As I have stated earlier, Kano is blessed with a good leader who is working selflessly towards the development of the state. He has proven that he is ready to transform Kano to a greater state and his government always focuses on anything that brings real change to the state and its citizens as seen since he assumed his role as the executive governor of the state.
This is an important task given to him by the electorates under our great party, NNPP.
On the other hand, Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf has shown that his administration is making frantic efforts to put a smile to the retirees by paying gratuities and other benefits which was neglected by the previous administration despite that they have the right to be paid.
The governor is also doing everything possible to support our youth and women, promoting their economic progress. Numerous skills acquisition programs have been organised, and N50,000 has been provided to women as startup capital for various trades. I am confident that many of those who received the N50,000 are now well-equipped in both rural and urban communities.
Your leadership has brought unity within your party, what is the secret behind this success?
NNPP is a united party not only in Kano state but in Nigeria at large due to its good provision to the people of all categories. And we are working selflessly to ensure that electorates benefited from the party’s manifestos but above all, our national leader Engineer Dr. Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso is the person behind our success who is always steadfast in bringing the best alternative to the people especially at present when other political parties have failed to bring succour to the people due to their weak manifestos.
What is your message to the people of Kano state who are expecting better from your government?
My message is to remind the people of Kano State that Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf is doing his best to restore the glory of our state with remarkable results. We fully support his efforts, and based on the benefits being experienced, Kano State is set to gain even more from the dividends of democracy. Our great party is growing more valuable to the people, without bias.
Let us all join hands to salvage our state as we have no other place than Kano State because through collaborative efforts, we can achieve a lot under the NNPP government.
Thank you for giving us your time despite your tight schedule as the Kano state NNPP chairman.
HASHIM SULAIMAN: Thank you very much for the gesture and I commend you for being neutral in your reporting mode.
