Kwankwaso: PDP, APC are out, but the NNPP is a viable alternative

Senator Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso, presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), has stated that the All Progressive Congress (APC) and the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) are dead parties, while the NNPP is the credible alternative in 2023.

“The NNPP is the APC and PDP’s worst nightmare in the upcoming general elections of 2023, and a far more credible alternative to the APC and PDP that have failed the country over the years,” he said.

Kwankwaso said the ruling APC had afflicted the country with so much poverty and disease, which was unfortunate, during an interaction with the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) 19 Northern States and the FCT chapter in Kaduna at the weekend.

“APC has proved to be worse than PDP, they are dead parties and if anyone thinks they will change for good, such person is either deceiving himself or being mischievous”.

“In the upcoming elections, voting should not be based on emotions in determining who becomes president.

As a Muslim, I backed former Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, both Christians, to defeat Buhari.”

” If there is any better candidate than me, I will support him in the interest of the country. If Nigerians choose the wrong leaders again in 2023, we should blame ourselves and no one else.”

“I have run for office 18 times, winning 15 of them and losing only three.

I’ve learned a lot about dealing with failure and success. “I believe I am well prepared to govern Nigeria because I have paid my political dues over the years and understand how to manage Nigeria’s challenges.”

“With my political antecedents and management of our diversities like I demonstrated as governor of Kano State regardless of religion, tribe and ethnicity, I can replicate it in Nigeria if given the opportunity in 2023 as President.

Today, I am a Muslim of no denomination, and I am for all because a leader must be fair and just.”

Kwankwaso stated that if elected president, he will restructure the security architecture and increase security personnel to address Nigeria’s security challenges.

“I will prioritize education and employment, and I will develop initiatives to boost the economy,” he said.
