Rabiu Kwankwaso, the presidential candidate for the New Nigeria Peoples Party, has urged Nigerians to vote against the APC and the PDP in the general election of 2023.
The two parties, according to the former governor of Kano State, have failed and have nothing to offer.
During a consultation visit to the State on Sunday, Kwankwaso made this statement at the state’s capital, Ado-Ekiti.
The presidential hopeful added that NNPP has expanded since he left PDP for the group.
Kwankwaso said, “This our party was registered about twenty-one years ago but in the last four months when I joined the party, so many people have joined us and that is why we have structures everywhere across the country. Not only that so many people have even registered including Ekiti state.
“We have seen the performance of the APC and PDP and all of us believe that they have failed the country woefully and nobody should expect anything from them again. These people in the two parties have failed and failed woefully, they have nothing to offer.
“Look at the road from Akure to Ado-Ekiti, it is in a very terrible and deplorable situation. You go around any of these cities, Abuja and other areas, you hardly see anything happening, poverty is at the highest level in this country, insecurity is also at its peak and we can’t continue like that, because of the way we are going now is one way to disaster in the country.
“So, the only way to avert that disaster is for Nigerians to go and sell the ideas of NNPP, which is a progressive party and vote for the party come 2023.”
“Don’t forget we have candidates across the board now in the NNPP ahead of the 2023 elections. So you will expect me to leave and join others in the PDP?” Kwankwaso stated in response to a question on the alliance with the PDP. It will not take place. The two big parties, of which I was a founding member, no longer have anything to offer me, which is why I left them and am unable to return.
