Well, let us wait and see whether they can. Each of the APC governors has only one vote like every other voter in the North. You think APC governors will sit down and be calling the voters to tell them where they will put their votes ?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While he was reacting to Nasir El-Rufai\u2019s claim that the North will turn out for Tinubu, Ango said Nigerians will see what would happen.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/9de81f12a2ff495db7d269b825b7a9e4\"\/><\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cI am waiting for El-Rufai to deliver votes to Tinubu in the North like he claimed.
