“Why I’m yet to dump Kwankwasiyya’s red cap” – Kano Gov Yusuf

‎The governor of Kano State, Abba Yusuf has explained why he is yet to dump the popular Kwankwasiyya Movement red camp despite his defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

‎

‎Yusuf said he would continue to wear the iconic red cap known to be worn mostly by members of the Kwankwasiyya Movement – a group of supporters loyal to the ideology of the former Kano governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso.

‎

‎He made this disclosure in Adamawa, where he was seen wearing a dark blue cap with the infinity insignia of President Bola Tinubu.

‎

‎When asked by some of his supporters if he would be dropping the red cap, he mentioned that he would continue to wear it.

‎

‎The governor’s explanation comes weeks after he dumped the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) which is being led by Kwankwaso for the APC.

‎

‎Also responding to the inquiry by the governor’s supporters on the cap, his media aide Sanusi Tofa said, “it is not yet time to do so“.

‎

‎Tofa in a post on his Facebook page said the governor is yet to get the needed directive on dropping the Kwankwasiyya cap.

‎

‎“There has been no directive to remove the red cap yet. This was a special outing in Yola, Adamawa State, where dignitaries dressed in uniform.

‎

‎“Let’s be patient; everything has its time,” Tofa wrote in Hausa.
