The national leader of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Rabiu Kwankwaso, has expressed confidence in winning the 2027 presidential election.
Kwankwaso, who was the party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 elections, made the statement on Saturday during the inauguration of the NNPP Secretariat in Katsina.
The former Kano State Governor, who was in Katsina for a condolence visit to the Yar’Adua family over the death of their matriarch, Hajiya Dada, said the party was ready to take over the presidency, states, and other positions across the country come 2027. “I wish to remind you that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is already dead, because we were in the party, since they have gone out of the line, we decided to check out,” he stated.
Kwankwaso urged Nigerians, particularly women and youths, not to allow themselves to be deceived with money or gifts during the next elections. He also called on the party’s leaders to redouble their commitment towards the success of the party in the state and the country as a whole.
The NNPP leader commended the party’s stakeholders in the state for renovating the state secretariat, saying it was part of preparations towards success. He also emphasized the importance of the party’s new logo, which symbolizes education for all, a key area of focus for the Kwankwasiyya leader.
Also speaking, the NNPP state Chairman, Alhaji Armaya’u Abdulkadir, said the party was doing everything possible to enlighten the electorate on the party’s new logo. He stressed the need for grassroots sensitization to inform members about the importance of the new logo.
With the 2027 general elections approaching, Kwankwaso’s confidence in winning the presidency has sent a clear message to Nigerians that the NNPP is ready to take on the challenge. However, the party’s success will depend on its ability to mobilize support across the country and convince Nigerians of its vision for a better future.
