The Credible People’s Movement (CPM), a political advocacy group championing quality leadership in Kano, has called on residents and political actors to put the state’s interest above personal or partisan considerations in order to address the challenges confronting it.
Chairman of the association, Musaddiq Tofa, made the call in an interview with journalists during a youth sensitisation campaign held in Kano.
Tofa said the ongoing political tension in the state requires individuals of integrity to stop withdrawing from the political space, noting that meaningful change can only occur when credible people actively participate in the system.

“Every day we hear people say that yesterday was better than today. Our challenges have gone beyond mere discussions in public forums. They require deliberate action,” he said.
He stressed that since political structures produce the leaders who shape society, there is a need to reform and strengthen the system rather than abandon it.
“We must not continue to shun the system and allow bad eggs to dominate while we remain at the receiving end. Silence and non-participation are part of what brought us to this situation,” Tofa reiterated.
The CPM Chairman added that the movement will not relent in its efforts to sensitise youths, political actors and the general public on the importance of a people-centred government rooted in sincerity and accountability.
He explained that the Credible People’s Movement is committed to giving grassroots communities a voice, listening where others overlook, and taking action where others hesitate, in line with its guiding philosophy.
