A former Personal Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Digital and New Media, Bashir Ahmad, has described Kano politics as a game best understood by the indigenes.
Ahmad in a tweet, described the ongoing political crisis in Kano as a No permanent enemy or friend affair.
Ahmad, who picked the House of Representatives nomination and expression of interest forms of the All Progressives Congress (APC), is seeking to represent Gaya, Ajingi and Albasu in the Lower Chamber.
He wrote: “If you’re not from Kano, then it will be difficult to understand Kano politics. In 2015, it was Kwankwaso + Ganduje against Shekarau In 2019, it was Shekarau + Ganduje against Kwankwaso In 2023 it’s going to be Kwankwaso + Shekarau against Ganduje. No permanent friend/enemy.”
If you’re not from Kano, then it will be difficult to understand Kano politics.
In 2015, it was Kwankwaso + Ganduje against Shekarau
In 2019, it was Shekarau + Ganduje against Kwankwaso
In 2023 it’s going to be Kwankwaso + Shekarau against Ganduje.
No permanent friend/enemy.

This recent post has been interpreted by some of his followers as predicting the downfall of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano state.
Yes In 2019 elections it was GNDJ + SHKR against KWKWS, but the election had to go into extra time (inconclusive) and everybody knows how the referee and VAR help the reigning champions. &now it’s Kwankwaso + Shekarau, and Ganduje alone so it’s well predicted loss awaits him

From what u are saying ur party will definitely fail come 2023 because whenever two of them merged, their party emerge as a winner. It is now time for @NnppNigeria to clinch kano governorship.

This is not a "no permanent friend/enemy" thing.
Truth is just that the three of them are in good terms, and politricking the good people of Kano state.
Just one day, the masses will + with themselves against the three of them.
