Ongoing projects may be abandoned if you dont vote Tinubu – Kano Rep, Bichi
The member representing Bichi Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Abubakar Kabir Abubakar, has urged residents of Bichi Federal Constituency in Kano State to vote for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general election, warning that ongoing development projects could be abandoned if the president is not re-elected.
Bichi said many of the projects being executed in Bichi and other parts of Kano were made possible through the support and approval of the federal government.
He spoke on Monday during the inauguration of the Bichi chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Campaign Council ahead of the 2027 general election.
“If you vote for me and do not vote for President Tinubu, there is a problem. Most of these development projects are coming to Bichi and Kano through his consent; there’s no other magic,” he said.
“No matter how a representative wants to work, without the approval of the executive, he cannot do it. If you don’t vote for Tinubu, all these ongoing projects will be abandoned,” he added.
Bichi said the development recorded in the constituency over the last seven and a half years would have been difficult for many people to imagine in 2019.
According to him, the projects were part of efforts to change the attitude of residents towards elections and encourage them to participate in the democratic process.
Every second brings Nigerians closer to exercising their democratic right and shaping the future of our nation.
Exercise your democratic right responsibly, peacefully and lawfully.
He said some people previously refused to vote because they believed their votes did not count and did not see the impact of elected officials’ work.
Bichi urged residents to support the APC in 2027, calling on Bichi residents and Kano North, which has 1.3 million registered voters, to deliver not less than 1 million votes for the party.

He also expressed support for Tinubu, saying the president had demonstrated commitment to the North through development projects.
“Tinubu loves the North. If he did not, he would not be doing all these things,” he said.
Bichi also referred to former President Muhammadu Buhari’s emergence as president in 2015, saying Tinubu played an important role in the process.
On insecurity, the lawmaker acknowledged that residents remained concerned about the situation but said there had been a gradual improvement.
He cited the Kaduna-Abuja road as an example, claiming that insecurity along the route had reduced.
Also, speaking, Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, called on members of the APC in Bichi to promote peaceful campaigns, inclusive governance and grassroots participation ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Yusuf, represented by his Deputy, Murtala Sule Garo, said Nigeria was recovering from its challenges, noting that the process of healing could come with pain.
“The country has been seriously injured and is in the process of recovery. For a wound to heal, it has to pass through pain,” he said.
Bichi, kano, Tinubu,
