Kwankwaso running to win presidential election – NNPP
The New Nigeria Political Party (NNPP) Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) has declared that the presidential candidate od the party, Rabiu Kwankwaso, is contesting to win the 2023 presidential election.
Spokesperson of the council, Ladipo Johnson, in a statement on Sunday in Abuja, said he was reacting to a “campaign of calumny being orchestrated by those who have failed” the country.
Johnson stated that “ab initio, they initiated and carried rumours about Kwankwaso purportedly stepping down for their weak candidates.”
He condemned the “antics of political jobbers”, noting that there was probably no easy way for them to sell their candidates to Nigerians.
Johnson declared: “These political jobbers are attempting to push their narratives by using pecuniary means to entice solitary NNPP or Kwankwasiyya members.
“They then staged ‘decamping shows where they paraded a few hired hands adorned with new red Kwankwasiyya caps, which they symbolically removed or threw away.
“These people are jokers and should be seen as such.”
Johnson insisted that Kwankwaso and NNPP were not only contesting the election, but also had clear strategy to win.
“RMK 2023 campaign is waxing stronger, as we head into the last 30 days of the campaign.
“Our candidate has reached over 400 local governments and he is going into the only state he has not been to, to campaign in the coming days.
“We repeat that we have a clear strategic path to victory and that, by God’s special grace, NNPP and Kwankwaso are going to win the election,” he stated.
Johnson declared further: “Kwankwaso has the competence, capacity and the political will to move Nigeria in the right direction, he will deliver on the people’s mandate.”
