2027: I only want to rescue Nigeria – Kwankwaso

The National leader of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, Rabiu Kwankwaso, said his intention to be President is to rescue Nigeria from the present economic quagmire.

Kwankwaso made this revelation during a visit to the Osun State Party Secretariat, at the weekend, stressing the need to make state chapters vibrant for easy and effective administration.

He also said the party would strengthen its state chapters in its bid to wrestle power from the All Progressives Congress, APC, in 2027.

This is contained in a statement by the State Party Chairman, Dr Tosin Odeyemi on Friday.

The statement said Kwankwaso, who was represented by a 3-man delegation, disclosed that the NNPP is not losing focus as an opposition party in the country and it is ready to deliver the masses from the current economic hardship.

According to him, various reports from each state, especially Osun, are giving me joy as the national leader. We are not unaware of the challenges ahead of us towards 2027 but we are prepared.

“Nigerians have so far realised that various leaders we have been having are intentionally using poverty to improvise citizens to cajole them again in 2027 with crumbs. I will not deceive them but rescue the country from the present quagmire.

“NNPP, as a party, has good intentions for the masses. We have started mobilising people all over. We are equipping our state secretariats and we are also providing them with vehicles to ease their movement,” Kwankwaso said.
