The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) says Rabiu Kwankwaso, its presidential candidate, is the most prepared and qualified for the presidency. 

Richard Benson, NNPP’s publicity secretary, said this in a statement in Lagos on Thursday. 

Benson said the NNPP has a formidable team in place to change the political narrative in Lagos state. 

“With the level of the party’s preparedness, we are very sure and certain that the narrative will definitely change. It is not about intimidation or ranting, but a game of strategies we are adequately executing and implementing to achieve our purposes,” NAN quoted Benson as saying.

“As far as Lagos state is concerned, we have a formidable structure that is organised and well-built for the purpose of the election.

“We will shock and surprise people in Lagos and Nigeria at large as our presidential candidate is the most qualified for this job.”

Benson said Kwankwaso has legislative and executive experiences to move the country forward if elected.

“NNPP will ensure that we get the maximum votes for the presidential, national assembly, as well as the governorship and house of assembly candidates. Nigerians deserve to have a better and a new Nigeria.

“The country yearns for good leaders with vision, character, and capacity to reposition and salvage our country.

“All these attributes can be found in Rabiu Kwankwaso who coincidentally believes in human capital development and educational advancement.”

The NNPP’s statement comes hours after an exchange between the PDP and APC over which party has the necessary structure in place to win Lagos in the 2023 elections.
