Buba Galadima ruined Kwankwaso’s political fortunes – Bature

The Director-General, Media and Communications to Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, Sunusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, has launched a a verbal attack on Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) chieftain, Engr. Buba Galadima, describing him as a political opportunist who has contributed nothing to the growth of any political movement.

Speaking during a radio programme, Bature alleged that Galadima had built his political relevance by ‘romancing’ different presidential candidates over the years rather than contributing to the growth of any political movement.

According to him, the biggest challenge currently facing the leader of the Kwankwasiyya Movement, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, is his association with Galadima.

“Today, because of Buba Galadima, Kwankwaso has fallen into a ditch that has turned his political career into a near total failure, leaving him to be moving from one party to another,” Bature said.

The governor’s spokesman also revisited the political trajectory of late former President Muhammadu Buhari, arguing that Buhari’s fortunes changed only after dumped Galadima and aligning with Bola Tinubu.

He claimed Buhari’s unsuccessful attempts for presidency were partly due to the influence of political associates such as Galadima.

“But I can bet you that, when Buhari realized his critical political mistakes and did away with Galadima and his likes and aligned himself with Bola Tinubu, that strategy gave him victory,” he said.

Bature further accused Galadima of lacking political influence despite his years in national politics.

“But Kwankwaso, who could not read the simple historical antecedence of Galadima, allowed himself to fall victim to his failures, while at the same time, he is loyal to Atiku Abubakar, President Tinubu and same Kwankwaso,” he added.

He concluded by dismissing Galadima as “nothing but a political wanderer” who, according to him, has failed to make any meaningful political impact even in his hometown of Bade, preferring instead to remain “an Abuja politician who goes on patronage.”

Galadima is yet to respond to Bature’s outburst.
