Dear Sen. Rufai Hanga, the choice is yours, by Kamal Alkasim
With utmost respect, as a concerned citizen from your senatorial district, I address you today. You hold the unique distinction of being the first to represent the Kano senatorial district for a second term. However, it cannot be overlooked that your previous representation of the region fell short of expectations.
Despite the shortcomings, the good people of this region have rallied behind you. They have chosen to forgive your past mistakes and have granted you another chance to serve them. This presents you with a remarkable opportunity to accomplish two significant goals simultaneously.
It is imperative to reiterate that the people of this region will reward you based on your achievements. Kano senatorial district has been represented by two former governors in the past. It is the home of great political revolutionaries like Aminu Kano, as well as renowned figures in the world of business and economics, such as Aminu Cantata, Aliko Dangote, Aminu Abdulsalam, and countless other eminent technocrats. Representing this region is an arduous task that demands dedication and competence.
By providing effective representation, you can achieve the dual purpose of enhancing your political influence and better serving the interests of the people. It is crucial to recognize that your political success cannot solely rely on the support of your godfather; rather, your achievements will serve as the yardstick by which your quality will be measured in the next election.
Kano Central belongs to all of us, and now, the choice lies in your hands.
