Doguwa made this known in a statement in Abuja on Sunday, August 11 in response to an allegation by another lawmaker, Abdulmumini Jibrin, that he posed a threat to the party’s electoral fortunes in the state describing him as a political liability.
“I want to use this opportunity to respectfully request the leadership of our party to allow me to coordinate and serve as a D-G of the Kano State Campaign Project in 2027.
“I am not a political liability in Kano; I am an asset, a source of pride for the APC both in the state and the country,” Doguwa said.
Doguwa, the only member of the House of Representatives elected under the platform of the ruling APC in Kano South Senatorial District represents Tudun-Wada/Doguwa Federal Constituency.
He is the Chairman of the House Committee on Petroleum Resources (Upstream).
He has been embroiled in a verbal attack with Jibrin, another lawmaker from Kano State who represents the Kiru/Bebeji federal constituency on the platform of the New Nigerian People’s Party.
Jibrin had earlier accused Doguwa of being an obstacle to peace in Kano State.
