Kwankwasiyya Movement breaks silence on rumoured Rabi’u Kwankwaso’s medical trip abroad

 

The Kwankwasiyya political movement has denied rumours that its leader, Sen. Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso, has travelled abroad to seek medical attention.

The denial is contained in a message sent to journalists through the group’s official Whatsapp platform, Kwankwasiyya Press, by Capt. Mansur Kurugu, the Kwankwasiyya Movement Spokesperson II.

“Good afternoon and thank you for reaching out.Sen. Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso departed Nigeria for a personal reason.

“It is not for a medical tourism or any health related reason,” Kurugu said.

PlatinumPost reports that the social media was awash Thursday afternoon with reports that Sen.Kwankwaso had departed Nigeria for medical reasons, which caused apprehension among many residents of Kano, especially members of the Kwankwasiyya movement.

The speculations came less than two weeks after the defection of Kwankwaso’s political Godson and Governor of the state, Abba Kabir Yusuf, which has so far heightened the polical temperature of the State.
