APC National Chairman and former Kano State Governor Abdullahi Ganduje has announced a donation of N20 million to the families of deceased police officers who were killed on their way back from Edo state after successfully helping the National Chairman and their party successfully rig the 21 September Edo Governorship election, against the will of the Edo people.
Critics are quick to point out that this donation seems more like a desperate attempt to garner sympathy and deflect attention from the mounting issues plaguing the APC’s “victory” in Edo state.
Some political pundits have also accused Ganduje of using it as a political ploy to bolster his image amid growing discontentment of the rigged Edo election. “This is nothing but a hollow gesture meant to distract us from our stolen mandate and show his boss at the top [President Tinubu] he’sstill on top of things nationally,” one local politician stated.
