APC Youths Reject Tijjani Gwarzo’s Removal as Tinubu Minister
The Congress of APC Youth Groups has faulted the recent removal of Engineer Abdullahi Tijjani Gwarzo as Minister of State Housing and Urban Development.
The group in a statement Tuesday signed by its Chairman Abdullahi Wada Kura described the removal of Gwarzo as shocking and risky for the All Progressives Congress in the state.
“Ruwa Baba enjoys the sympathy and support of the majority in the state. His sacking has led to a widespread discontent that will definitely weaken the APC’s influence and future prospects in the state,” the group warned.
Gwarzo who was removed along with 4 others has thanked the President for giving him the opportunity to serve his country.

However, the group alleged that his sacking was politically motivated by a well placed political individual in Kano.
“The person behind the removal of Gwarzo misled the President, it’s pertinent to know that one person cannot decide for Kano,” it said.
It further warned that the action is a silent endorsement of the NNPP noting that politicians like Gwarzo shouldn’t be thrown away without any justifiable reason other than the decision of a single individual who claims to control the politics of Kano.
“If not returned to office, by 2027, the President will know whether Gwarzo is for the people or not but it’s evident from the sympathy people are showing and the prayers conducted due to his removal.
“Kano North is a stronghold of APC because of Gwarzo and other stakeholders from the zone, not one person.
The President should give it a look but it’s a risky decision ahead of 2027,” Wanda said.
