“One of Sen. Kwankwaso’s beneficiaries, The Executive Governor of Kano, decided to promote the son of his benefactor, not really as a payback but because Mustapha Rabiu Kwankwaso is among the capable youth who worked tirelessly for the success of the present administration in Kano.

“The Governor empowers youths and allows them to explore their potential. Certainly, Mustapha cannot be an exception due to his paternal history, which shouldn’t be a barrier to his political career as he has decided to be a politician, like his father.”
