He said, “In Kano, we have two political parties; the APC and the PDP. The PDP splitted into two with the Kwankwassiyya forming NNPP.

“We still have only APC and PDP in Kano. So I am optimistic APC will win Kano in 2023.”

Even though he agreed that his major challenger in Kano South, Kawu Sumaila of the NNPP is pulling crowd, Gaya said he is hopeful of going back to the Senate for the fifth time.

He said, “Kawu is doing well, but I have more crowd than him, and I believe I will win the election.”
