The Many Sins of Kwankwaso: A Tale of Self-interest and Betrayal

THE MANY SINS OF KWANKWASO: A TALE OF SELF-INTEREST AND BETRAYAL - Haruna Abubakar Bebeji 
Introduction:
In the realm of governance, leaders are expected to prioritize the well-being of their constituents and work selflessly towards their progression. However, the tenure of Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso as the former Governor of Kano State paints a starkly different picture. Kwankwaso's leadership was characterized by a series of misappropriations, nepotism, and an egregious abuse of power. This article sheds light on the dark underbelly of his reign, unveiling the many sins committed by Kwankwaso.

Mismanaged Public Funds:
One of the most glaring offenses perpetrated by Kwankwaso was the mismanagement of public funds. He shamelessly utilized the Local Government Council funds to initiate the construction of 5-kilometer roads without completion. These unfinished projects not only wasted public resources but also hindered the progress and development of Kano State. The siphoning of pensioners' funds to finance his pet projects, such as the Kwankwasiyya and Amana City, further reflects his disregard for the welfare of the people he was elected to serve.

Foreign Education Scam:
Kwankwaso's dubious scheme of sending Kano indigenes abroad for higher education raises serious questions about his sincerity and commitment to the progress of the state. Instead of investing in the development and improvement of local institutions, he chose to deceive the people of Kano with the allure of foreign education. This ploy not only drained the state's coffers but also failed to address the underlying issues hindering the quality of education within Kano itself.

Political Puppetry:
Kwankwaso's puppeteering of the present Governor of Kano State, Engr. Abba Kabir Yusuf, is a testament to his desire to maintain control even after leaving office. Yusuf's allegiance to his benefactor is evident in his unwavering commitment to attack Kwankwaso's perceived enemies and carry out his bidding. This orchestration of power not only undermines the democratic principles of governance but also stifles the ability of the Governor to act independently and in the best interest of the people.

Conclusion:
Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso's tenure as the former Governor of Kano State will forever be marred by the numerous sins committed against the people he pledged to serve. His misappropriation of public funds, deceitful foreign education scam, and manipulation of puppet leaders highlight his self-serving nature. It is imperative for the people of Kano to recognize these transgressions and demand leaders who prioritize their well-being, foster progress, and work diligently to uplift the state. Only through vigilance and a commitment to good governance can Kano truly flourish.

The Truth Behind the #JusticeForRahama Hashtag: Examining the Importance of Responsibility on Social Media - Haruna Abubakar Bebeji  Introduction : In recent days, social media platforms in Arewa (Northern Nigeria), have been buzzing with the #JusticeForRahama hashtag. The hashtag originated from the expulsion of Rahama Saidu, a TikTok and Instagram personality, from Kebbi State College of Nursing Sciences.  While rumors initially speculated that the college expelled her solely for posting videos on her social media accounts, it has become apparent that Rahama's expulsion was due to her failure to adhere to the college's rules and academic responsibilities.  In light of this controversy, it is crucial for individuals, especially young girls on social media, to understand the implications of their actions and prioritize their professional development. Examining the College's Perspective: Kebbi State College of Nursing Sciences swiftly denied the ru...

SANUSI BATURE, AN ACCIDENTAL SPOKESMAN: THE REJOINDRER

Re-Sanusi Bature, An Accidental Spokesman by Muazu Muazu - Haruna Abubakar Bebeji  As a concerned observer of the political landscape in Kano, I feel compelled to respond to the disparaging article titled "Sanusi Bature, An Accidental Spokesman" by Muazu Muazu, which unfairly critiques the position and capabilities of Malam Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa. While I have never met Sanusi and am not affiliated with the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) — indeed, I am an ardent member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) — I find it disheartening that personal bias and unfounded allegations have overshadowed the achievements of a respected journalist. Firstly, Muazu's assertions about Sanusi’s qualifications and capabilities as a spokesman fail to recognize the depth of his professional background. Sanusi Bature, also known affectionately as "SaBature," is a seasoned journalist with an impressive track record that spans nearly two decades across various repu...
