He, however, praised the incumbent Governor, Uba Sani, for standing by him and doing everything possible for him to emerge the Speaker of the 10th House of Representatives.
Speaking during an empowerment programme, Abbas lamented that El-Rufai’s lack of support is sad and unfortunate.
The Speaker added that President Bola Tinubu told him to thank Governor Sani for emerging the Speaker.
“It is unfortunate and sadly, up until now, surprising to me that the previous Kaduna State government was the number one opposition against me becoming the Speaker of the House of Reps. The one who stood for me and did everything he could to make me Speaker is Gov Uba Sani.”
“President Tinubu told me himself that I should thank God, but I should also thank Uba Sani for becoming Speaker,” Abbas declared.
