The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has declared the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) “dead“, asserting that the party has lost relevance in the national political landscape.
Speaking during a press briefing on Tuesday, Ganduje did not mince words about the state of the NNPP or the intentions of its leader, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.
“The NNPP is dead. And it will soon be buried very, very soon. I’m looking at where we will bury the body. The coffin has already been constructed. What remains now is to dig the grave. And already, they are digging the grave,” Ganduje said.
The APC Chairman further claimed that Kwankwaso, the presidential candidate of the NNPP in the 2023 general election, is seeking a return to the ruling party.
“Even like that, the so-called NNPP national leader, he too, he says after losing everyone, he wants to come back to us. We will welcome him because he’s coming back home,” Ganduje added.
Though there has been no official statement from Kwankwaso or the NNPP in response to the remarks, Ganduje’s comments have sparked discussions within political circles about potential realignments ahead of the 2027 elections. Continue>
