Kwankwaso cannot reconcile with Ganduje – Garkuwa

The Kaduna State Coordinator of the Kwankwaso Organisation, Alhaji Bala Kubaraci Garkuwa, has advised those trying to reconcile Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje with his predecessor in office, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, to shelve the idea saying it will not achieve anything positive.

The coordinator, who spoke with newsmen in Kaduna, said the issues between Kwankwaso and Ganduje were deeper and far more serious than the issues in other APC states.
Garkuwa said whereas those of the other states had to do with the ambitions of some persons, the case of Kano was different because it was a case of betrayal, which could not be talked over unless the ‘betrayer’ begged for forgiveness and turned a new leaf.
“This is purely a case of betrayal. Somebody made you somebody when you were nothing; after making you a deputy governor, he took you to the Ministry of Defense, then to Niger Delta and Dafur; if he wasn’t a good man he wouldn’t do that,” he claimed.
The coordinator said considering the favour done to Ganduje, even if Kwankwaso had offended him, the latter should have talked to him or sent some elders to talk to him about it rather than openly disparaging the former governor.
He also said, “Why I think reconciliation will not be possible is because of the people benefitting from the situation. After the Katsina meeting of the APC, a committee was constituted in Kano to investigate Senator Kwankwaso on his visit to Katsina, these are the kind of actions I am talking about,’ he said. 
“The APC should even be happy that it has somebody like Kwankwaso who always pulls crowd for the party, and they should know that the affection is not something that is planned but was spontaneous due to the goodwill he enjoys, hence there is hardly anything anybody can do about it,” he added.

Arsenal’s Wenger concerned by Chinese spending power

Arsene Wenger fears the huge wages being offered by big-spending Chinese clubs could cause problems when the Premier League teams look to negotiate new contracts with their star players.  Wenger is currently locked in talks with Arsenal duo Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez as the pair reportedly seek parity with the best-paid players in the Premier League. The Arsenal manager is hoping for successful resolutions to those contract stand-offs, but he believes the money on offer in the China Super League may persuade the Premier League’s star names to ask for even bigger pay packets to stay in England. Chelsea striker Diego Costa has been linked with a move to China, with an offer of £600,000-per-week ($739,000) reportedly on the table for the Spain international. Two of his former Chelsea team-mates, Oscar and John Obi Mikel, have already moved to Super League outfits, while former Manchester United striker Carlos Tevez became the highest-earning player in the world when h...
