Kwankwaso urges Nigerians to join struggle for better change
The National Leader of the New Nigeria Peoples Party(NNPP), Sen. Rabi’u Kwankwaso,has urged Nigerians to get set and join the struggle to bring positive change in the country.
Kwankwaso said this on Thursday at his Miller Road Residence in Kano, when he received thousands of supporters of the All Progressives Congress(APC) from Dala, Gwale and Kiru Local Government Areas,who defected to the NNPP.
“The people of Kano State;the people of Northern Nigeria and indeed,all Nigerians, should partake in the efforts to bring the desired change as the nation is facing myriad of challenges, currently,” he said.
Such challenges, the NNPP presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections said, include insecurity, inflation, hunger, poverty, starvation and discontentment in the country.
“Nigerians and Northerners in particular have suffered enough and no amount of pressure, fear and deceit will prevent them from changing the situation.
“Regardless of their belief that they would use Security and INEC in the forthcoming elections, Nigerians are fed up with them and will surely fight to change the narrative.
“When the wind of change blows you will see those who think they have Security and INEC running helter-skelter, and Nigerians will make the right choice of those who will address their unfortunate situation.
“I am glad that you have now realized the imperatives of leaving your former party, having experienced the prevailing unfortunate happenings in the country such as insecurity, poverty, hunger and starvation.
“I am also happy that you have realized that the NNPP is the only party that can rescue the country from the aforementioned challenges,” Kwankwaso said.
Several of the defectors who spoke at occasion said they joined the party because of the people-oriented programmes of the NNPP-controlled government in the state which was positively impacting on the lives of the people.
