Emmanuel, however, labelled Kwankwaso’sletter as “a desperate attempt to revive his dwindling political influence” and a threat to government stability.

Emmanuel emphasized that Kwankwaso’sblatant disregard for the Constitution and core democratic values is deeply concerning,

Therefore, he called for increased vigilance from law enforcement agencies to thwart his harmful plans and safeguard citizens' well-being.

Likewise, he urged these agencies to “remain highly alert to Kwankwaso’sschemes, which jeopardize government stability and undermine the democratic principles embedded in our Constitution.

He said:

"This latest missive constitutes merely one instance of Kwankwaso's multifaceted endeavours to subvert the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu."In light of this, we emphatically implore law enforcement agencies to exercise heightened vigilance towards Kwankwaso's machinations, which imperil the stability of our government and undermine the democratic principles enshrined in our Constitution.

Gov Abba criticized over alleged abandonment of responsibilities.

The group also condemned Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf for abandoning his gubernatorial responsibilities in favour of political showmanship, thereby exacerbating the hardships the people of Kano faced.

He said:

"Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf must stop using his glaring lack of governance knowledge to endanger the lives of Kano's citizens, thereby threatening the core of our society."

The Northern Patriotic Agenda advised Kwankwaso and Governor Yusuf to reconsider their actions and aim for forward-thinking leadership.

He said:

"We unequivocally declare that Kwankwaso has made a serious misstep this time, and we urge him to reconsider, seek wise counsel, and make decisions that benefit the broader populace."
