The New Nigeria Peoples Party NNPP states that it would be a huge relief for its members if its 2023 presidential candidate, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, were to join the ruling All Progressives Congress APC.
This is contained in a statement by the NNPP National Secretary, Mr Oginni Olaposi, on Sunday in Lagos.
Olaposi was reacting to the resignation of APC national chairman Abdullahi Ganduje and speculations that he quit the ruling party over an alleged move by Kwankwaso to join them.
Ganduje resigned from his chairmanship position at the APC on Friday, citing health issues.
Olaposi stated that although the resignation was an APC internal affair, the party decided to react due to the issues between it and Kwankwaso. Kwankwaso still insists he is a member of our party even after his expulsion for alleged anti-party activities. Kwankwaso did not only try to hijack the NNPP but made the party go through avoidable litigations. The NNPP Logo that he changed to the Kwankwasiya Movement Logo has just been changed to our Logo by INEC after years of controversy and litigations.
