The national leadership of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), has told the National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje, that its presidential candidate in the February 25 election, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, was not his mate when it comes to politics.
The National Auditor of the party Ladipo Johnson, who berated the APC members for making a character like Ganduje their national chairman, said the party would not entertain questions relating to comments from Ganduje on their presidential candidate.
Johnson said the focus of the party was to rebuild it and this would entail the discipline of members.
Also speaking at the press conference, the NNPP National Chairman, Abba Kawu Ali, said he was surprised that the APC could settle for a man like Ganduje despite his various controversies and that there was no basis to compare Ganduje to Kwankwaso because the latter was miles ahead and better than the former.
“The party performed very well in the 2023 general election given the fact that from its formation to the election proper was less than one year. Apart from winning seats in both the national and state assemblies, the party also won the governorship election in Kano State,” he said.
He added that the party was the third party in the National Assembly after the APC and the PDP and the NWC meeting was called to take a stock of its achievements and where it is supposed to be in the next coming years.
