The Presidential candidate of the New Nigeria People Party (NNPP), Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso has Commissioned party’s Office in Mubi, Adamawa State yesterday.
A press statement by media aide to the NNPP presidential candidate, Saifullahi Hassan, Thursday, quoted Kwankwaso as saying in Yola, Wednesday, that Nigerians have become helpless orphans, lacking even some of the basic needs of life, including household needs and security of life and property.
He attributed this to poor governance, which he said must change.
Senator Kwankwaso, who was in the Adamawa state capital where he commissioned the state secretariat of the NNPP, said the country urgently needs an alternative political platform and leader to bail it out of ineffective leadership.
“Today, Nigerians are like orphans. Everyone is forced to be on his own. NNPP is the alternative platform to change the narrative,” Kwankwaso said.
The newly-commissioned NNPP state secretariat is in Yola town, near the Lamido Adamawa Palace, in Yola South Local Government Area.
Its governorship candidate is a former deputy governor of the state, Sa’ad Tahir, who was a former governorship aspirant under the PDP and later defected to APC, from where he defected earlier this year to the NNPP upon its reinvigoration at the national level by Rabiu Kwnakwaso.
