Ganduje explains why he was absent from the inauguration. In a recent interview with BBC Hausa, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, the immediate past Governor of Kano, clarified that he is not actively pursuing any appointment from President Bola Tinubu.
However, he acknowledged that he would accept an appointment if it were offered to him.
During the interview, Ganduje extended his good wishes to Tinubu and expressed his commitment to praying for his success.
