Focus on Prayers, not Meaningless Journeys – ‘Abba Gida Gida’ Tells Victory Trekkers
By Ozumi Abdul
The governor-elect in Kano state in the just concluded governorship election, Engr Kabir Yusuf Abba popularly known as Abba Gida Gida has urged ‘victory walkers’ to discontinue their journey and instead continue to pray for him to deliver the dividends of democracy to the good people of the state.
The prayers, he said, are sufficient as a show of solidarity and celebration of his victory at the polls on Saturday, and not miles of trek by some of his enthusiasts.

He said that the task ahead of him is to rid the state of insecurity, with banditry, kidnapping and terrorism threatening the peaceful movement of people and goods across the length and breadth of the country.
While thanking the supporters within and outside Kano State, the governor-elect urged the trekkers to discontinue the journey as that may not reasonably contribute to solving lots of economic and social challenges awaiting the incoming government after taking over on May 29, 2023.
In a statement signed by Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, the spokesperson to the governor-elect, he said the incoming Kano State government will be committed to a greater future of the people.
He added that security, health, education, economic, infrastructure and good welfare for aged and civil servants will be the priorities of the new government.
He then tasked that all hands should be on deck towards ensuring the actualisation of Kwankwasiyya and the NNPP vision for responsive leadership that works for all in the State.
