Kwankwasiyya Rubble-Rousing Short-Wave Politi



The Arewa Youths Merger Group has called for the immediate arrest of Senator Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso, the National Leader and 2023 Presidential Candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).


This follows his recent statement accusing the All Progressive Congress (APC)-led Federal Government of fostering a new generation of Boko Haram terrorists and insurgents in Northern Nigeria.

Kwankwaso's allegations have sparked significant controversy, prompting a strong reaction from the Arewa Youths Merger Group.
In a statement issued in Abuja, the association's leader, Musa Mujahid 

Zaitawa, condemned Kwankwaso's remarks as inflammatory and detrimental to national security.
Zaitawa asserted that such statements could exacerbate tensions and potentially incite violence in the region.

"Kwankwaso's unfounded accusations against the federal government are not only reckless but also dangerous. They undermine efforts to combat terrorism and promote peace in Northern Nigeria,"


Zaitawa said. "We urge the authorities to take immediate action and arrest him to prevent further escalation of hostilities."

Kwankwaso, a prominent political figure and former Governor of Kano State, made the controversial statement during a recent public address.


He accused the APC administration of failing to address the root causes of terrorism and instead contributing to its proliferation.


According to Kwankwaso, government actions and policies are inadvertently creating conditions conducive to the rise of a new breed of insurgents.


The situation remains tense as stakeholders from various sectors weigh in on the implications of Kwankwaso's statement and the response from the Arewa Youths Merger Group.

The occasion afforded Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in the 2023 elections, an opportunity to ventilate his feelings on the forces in political contest in Kano State.  Many people believe that Kano is suffering great abuse in the tight grief of Kwankwaso as an alternate, if not the real, governor in his illegal Third Term. In his emotional outburst, the former Presidential candidate alluded to a number of issues, which many see as pointers to the inner workings of his mind, suggesting his political fortunes in the State are nose-diving or in the least taking a big hit. For instance, from the vituperations of Kwankwaso, one can easily understand that, the NNPP, as...
