“Gaya, as you know, is the home of APC; no political party can match our strength and our crowd. We are determined to take the bull by the horn in maintaining our dominance. Dr. Nasir Yusif Gawuna is our candidate and he is going to be the next Governor of Kano State.

“We have made all the necessary preparations, the colourful event where our gubernatorial candidate would receive his flag from the president who would be here in Kano for the purpose of giving him the flag.

Gawuna, who spoke in the same vein, said he was fully prepared for the battle ahead.

“I want to believe that my destiny is in the hands of God and that I have no iota of doubt that with God’s will, nothing would stop me from winning the race.

“Our party still remains formidable and vibrant and we are also willing to remain steadfast in the face of all odds,” the deputy governor added.
