NNPP fastest-growing party, APC, PDP broken – Kwankwaso

NNPP fastest-growing party, APC, PDP broken – Kwankwaso

The national leader of the New Nigeria People’s Party, Rabiu Kwankwaso, on Monday, described the Peoples Democratic Party as a “dead party.”

He also criticised the ruling All Progressives Congress, saying it was out of touch with the current realities Nigerians are grappling with, which include escalating insecurity, abject poverty, and widespread hunger.

Kwankwaso, who spoke in Kano during  NNPP’s National Executive Committee meeting, emphasised that despite the numerous challenges confronting the party, the NNPP was the fastest-growing political movement in Nigeria.

He thanked the party’s supporters for their dedication and commitment, expressing confidence in the party’s future and describing it as a viable alternative in the country’s political landscape.

“I’m pleased to say that despite all the challenges, today, our party is the fastest-growing party in this country. I remember when I visited Katsina State to inaugurate our state office, I mentioned that the two parties, especially the PDP, were dead, and there are so many concerns within the fold of the PDP,” Kwankwaso noted.

He added, “I’m sure when I made that statement, many of them did not foresee what is happening today—that the party has been broken into pieces.

The party is imploding, and therefore, if they didn’t understand it at that time, now I believe they will agree with us that the party is dead.

“The APC, as it stands today, is disconnected from the realities on the ground. The leadership is up there in the air, while the entire nation and its people are left on the ground. Whether they believe they are doing well or not, all of us, especially the voters, see that they are performing very, very badly—particularly when you look at the issues of security, the level of poverty in this country, and the menace of hunger that we are currently witnessing.”

In his submission, NNPP National Chairman, Dr. Ajuji Ahmed, called on Nigerians to prioritise doing what is right and unite to build a better future.

Addressing the gathering, the National Secretary, Dipo Olayoku, encouraged party members to actively participate in local government elections to boost visibility and strengthen democracy.

He recalled that the last NEC meeting held on April 5, 2024, ratified the party’s new constitution, logo, slogan, and flag in accordance with the NNPP’s internal regulations, the Electoral Act, and the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended), along with other legal statutes and guidelines from the Independent National Electoral Commission.

Furthermore, Olayoku emphasised the NNPP’s commitment to supporting its leaders and upholding the will of the electorate amid the country’s ongoing political challenges.
