A group, the Coalition of Civil Society Organization for Democracy, has called on the Inspector-General of Police to immediately arrest the presidential candidate of the NNPP, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.

Addressing journalists during a press conference in Abuja, the group accused Kwankwaso of plotting to “set Nigeria on fire” following the recent Appeal Court ruling which sacked Governor Abba Yusuf of Kano State.

The group also accused Kwankwaso of sponsoring protests and mobilizing “some unscrupulous persons to insult President Bola Tinubu”.

“The Kwankwasiya leader is on a mission to revenge his failed attempt to join President Bola Tinubu’s cabinet. It is not a secret that Kwankwaso lobbied the president through all means to reap where he did not sow before Tinubu formed his cabinet but all his attempts failed,” the group said.

“As a former governor and presidential candidate, it is wrong for him to go and mobilize people to be insulting the president and discredit all his achievements so far because his party lost Kano State.

“The time to arrest Kwankwaso is now. We’re therefore calling on the Inspector-General of Police to rise up to his responsibility and declare Kwankwaso wanted and arrested.
