Sanusi Bature made the remarks during an appearance on Arise Television’s Morning Show on Wednesday, where he argued that the two political figures hold fundamentally different ideological positions.
He questioned the compatibility of both politicians, suggesting that their political beliefs and approaches to governance do not align enough to form a stable partnership ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The spokesman further claimed that tensions in perception and political identity between both camps would make any joint ticket difficult to sustain in practice.
According to him, the proposed arrangement lacks the cohesion required to deliver effective leadership, insisting that it would not be acceptable within Kano political expectations.
