PDP is dead, says Kwankwaso

The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) presidential candidate for 2023 general election, Rabiu Kwankwaso, has said the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is dead in the country.

Speaking on Saturday during the inauguration of a renovated party office in Katsina State, Kwankwaso said he and his followers left the PDP because “it is dead”.

“I wish to remind you that PDP is dead because we left the party. Since they have gone out of the line, we decided to check out,” he said.

Kwankwaso also said he would win the 2027 presidential election, adding that the NNPP is ready to take over the presidency and more than the states.

The former Governor of Kano State said Nigerians should not be deceived by gifts or money during the next general election.

Also speaking, Katsina NNPP chairman, Armaya’u Abdulkadir, said the party in the state is doing everything possible to enlighten the electorate on the party’s new logo.

Abdulkadir said the new logo symbolises education for all, which is the main focus area of the Kwankwasiyya leader.

“There is the need for the party to embark on grassroots sensitisation to inform the members on the importance of the new logo,” he said.
