2023: I’ll withdraw from race if I see a better candidate – Kwankwaso

The presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, Alhaji Musa Kwankwaso has said that he is ready to withdraw from his 2023 presidential ambition if he sees a better candidate.

The former governor of Kano State stated this while reeling out his political credentials at the Chatham House on Wednesday, January 18, 2023.

He said,” I built over 500 classrooms while I was governor of Kano state, and when elected I will bring more people on board to tackle education needs in Nigeria.”

On why he cannot work with the Labour Party 

Kwankwaso said: “On Labour Party, I was initially interested in working with them, but at that time, they were at peak of the media hype and we couldn’t reach a compromise. Our party (NNPP) is a National Party, and we’re commanding the support of the masses.

“Labour Party is based on ethnicity and religion, that’s why we can’t work together.

“NNPP is the fastest growing party in Nigeria today, Labour Party’s hype is gradually coming down.”
