Barau I. Jibrin, Nigeria’s Deputy Senate President, holds an influential position, poised to shape the nation’s political dynamics as the country’s fourth-highest-ranking official. His career trajectory and actions have made him a household name in Kano politics. But you got it wrong that “Yet, as his ambition appears to intensify, recent moves have raised questions about the wisdom and effectiveness of his political strategy. While Kano and Nigeria as a whole grapple with pressing socio-political issues, Jibrin’s approach risks not only his aspirations but also the stability and cohesion of his base.” This is because if you are truly a political analyst who is unbiased, will know that in Kano, there is a governor who is wholly shouldered with the responsibility of making the State great and is receiving on monthly basis FG grants upon grants, but even at that, Barau Jibrin has made it a policy to contribute his quarto as a loyal and patriotic citizen of Kano, check out his contributions in the area of Education, human development, road and Dams reconstruction and many other things. This clearly shows that your analysis on Barau Jibrin political trajectory into the exalted seat of the State was wrong and remains wrong, the Deputy Senate President moves on that seat is a welcome decision, because already he has taken upon himself the duties that are supposed to be solidly for the owner of the Government House that’s the Governor, check out his recent sharing of over 60 Trucks of Fertilizer across the ancient City which even provoked and reawakened the Government to now followed suit copying from him, if somebody who’s main Duties is lawmaking but had taking it as his responsibility to come into the State with his supports what more if he is the Governor of the State?
Senator Barau’s political journey began in 1999 when he served as a member of the House of Representatives and later as chair of the Appropriation Committee—a prestigious role that underscored his growing influence. There was nothing After a temporary setback in 2003, his career saw a resurgence when former Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso appointed him Commissioner for Science and Technology, marking his return to political relevance.”-This is also biased submission, because, Barau Jibrin political trajectory never died, and he didn’t start his Politics in 1999, he has been in Politics since the second Republic, and his appointment after failing to make it in 2003 was done based on his Political relevance not as a support for his Coming back. And his resurgence into the Senate was not with Kwankwaso support it was because of a unifying factor of Buhari and so many others who came under the umbrella of APC even with Shekarau that time that brought the winning team making Kano a wholly APC State, than.

Similarly, That Barau Jibrin distance himself from Kwankwaso and aligned himself with Ganduje, you also got it wrong, Barau has forever been an Independent Person Politically, because many a times he is needed for a solid political front not him needing to joined a train of others.
Recent actions have highlighted Jibrin’s apparent willingness to prioritize his ambition over party unity and community trust.” This to me and many others nobody would ever tell you that he understands what you mean, how do you wholly shouldered the responsibility of Party Unity in one Person, when you have National Chairman, State Chairman, Gubernatorial Candidate and his Deputy and so many other actors, Haba Mallam, this particular submission clearly shows that everything is wrong with your analysis and it has killed it all.
You are insistence on Gwarzo shows that there is a big disconnect on your analysis, one will left with no option but to believes that the whole of your writting was been sponsored by the Person who is aggrieved for been removed from office and his political Allie’s, why are you talking as if this some Gwarzo you are nagging on has any serious political relevance, have you forgotten that if not local Government Chairman from that area he has never won any political office, even the Deputy Governorship was given to him on a floater of goal by Mallam Shekarau who even betrayed the trust of the Government by Contesting under a party that was not known to the State, than.
On financial supports of Barau Jibrin, if you are akin to his political trajectory, he is somebody who end the names of a generous Person who is always willing to help and anybody whoever relate to him knows that even those that goes to him, laying they have joined him, even though, he knew is lies, he will still satisfied their financial needs and allowed them with their conscious, just like the Umma you gave example with.
Today in Kano Politics, there is no gainsaying that Barau Jibrin remains the messier in waiting because in just less then two years the NNPP Government has failed and PDP is in disarray.
