KANO State governor, Dr Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has said President Goodluck Jonathan needs the support of every Nigerian to end the saga of abducted schoolgirls at Chibok, Borno State.
Speaking at the weekend, in Gusau, Zamfara State, in an interview with newsmen, the governor said the abduction was not only a national embarassment, but an issue that concerned every Nigerian.
He said at this time of the history of the nation, the president needed the support of every Nigerian, to ensure the abducted girls were released to their various families in good health.
According to him, “with all humility, we in the opposition regret this dastardly act and condemn it in totality. We have to assist him and join hands with him (president) in bringing to an end this national disgrace.”
On the recent victory of his party in the last local government polls, he said the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kano got what it deserved.
Kwankwaso berated the claim made by a former governor in the state that the election was not free and fair.
“We conducted the best and the freest local government election ever held in the country. The problem is that some people think they are very important and that without them things would not happen.
“The election we held was just like a referendum. It has spoken the minds of Nigerians and what to expect in 2015,” he said.
