POLITICS DIGEST- Kano State Commissioner for Information, Muhammad Garba, has said history will repeat itself in the 2023 general election when the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, will defeat former Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.
The commissioner recalled that the presidential candidate of defunct Social Democratic Party (SDP), the late Bashorun Moshood Olawale Kashimawo (MKO) Abiola, defeated his National Republican Convention (NRC) counterpart in the 1993 poll, the late Alhaji Bashir Othman Tofa, in Kano State.

Garba spoke at a lecture organised by Kaduna League of Veteran Journalists, with the theme: Let’s Talk Nigeria, in partnership with Arewa House and Hamdala Hotel in Kaduna.
The commissioner, who is a former President of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), said: “I know the former governor of the state is also going to be on the ballot. But history will repeat itself in Kano because the late Moshood Abiola of the defunct SDP defeated Kano-born late Bashir Tofa of the defunct NRC during the 1993 presidential election.
“I’m confident Kano State will produce lots of votes in 2023. The votes from Nassarawa Local Government of the state alone is more than the votes of the entire Southeast combined. I’m confident we will deliver Kano State to APC, in shaa Allah (God permitting),” he said
