The governor of Kano State, Dr Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, on Sunday, urged Nigerians to support President Goodluck Jonathan in putting an end to the lingering issue of the kidnapped school girls from Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State.
The governor, who made the call in Gusau, Zamfara State, pointed out that the kidnapping was not just a national embarassment, but an issue that should concern all Nigerians.
According to him, the president needed Nigerians support in ensuring the safe return of the abducted girls to their various families.
"with all humility, we in the opposition regret this dastardly act and condemn it in totality. We have to assist him and join hands with him (president) in bringing to an end this national disgrace" he said.
Speaking on the Kano State just concluded local government election which the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) won, he described it as a victory well deserved.
Kwankwaso berated the claim made by a former governor in the state that the election was not free and fair.
"We conducted the best and the freest local government election ever held in the country. The problem is that some people think they are very important and that without them things would not happen. The election we held was just like a referendum. It has spoken the minds of Nigerians and what to expect in 2015" Kwankwaso said.
