Appoint me 2027 Kano campaign DG, Doguwa tells APC

A federal lawmaker from Kano State, Alhassan Doguwa, has vowed to deliver the state to the All Progressives Congress in the 2027 general elections.

Doguwa said that he would ensure success for the APC  in the 2027 general elections, adding that he should be allowed to serve as the director-general of the party’s 2027 campaigns in the state.

Doguwa said this in Abuja on Sunday, while responding to a claim by another lawmaker, Abdulmumini Jibrin, that he posed a threat to the electoral fortunes of the APC in the state.

Jibrin had also said that Doguwa was a political liability to his party.

“I want to use this opportunity to respectfully request the leadership of our party to allow me to coordinate and serve as a D-G of the Kano State Campaign Project in 2027.

“I am not a political liability in Kano; I am an asset, a source of pride for the APC both in the state and the country,” Doguwa said.

The  News Agency of Nigeria reports that Doguwa is the only member of the House of Representatives elected under the platform of the ruling APC in Kano South Senatorial District

He represents Tudun-Wada/Doguwa Federal Constituency, and  he is the Chairman of the House Committee on Petroleum Resources (Upstream),

He has been embroiled in a verbal attack with Jibrin, another lawmaker from Kano State who represents the Kiru/Bebeji federal constituency on the platform of the New Nigerian People’s Party.

Jibrin had earlier accused  Doguwa of being an obstacle to peace in Kano State.
