In response to this call, Gawuna in an audio message shared by his Chief Press Secretary, said in confirmation of his earlier statement on the will of God stands, he is praying that God would help Yusuf to be a true leader for all.
“I want to remind the people of Kano state that, earlier during our campaigns, we prayed that if winning the election is the best for us, may Almighty Allah give us, and if it’s not, may He Almighty give us what is the best for us.
“Therefore, I call on my followers and supporters to accept the destiny that come to us. For the winner of the election, I pray for him to be a good leader that will practice justice for all. For us, may Almighty Allah guide us to be good followers to our leaders,” Gawuna said.
