Kwankwaso’s Comments On Obi, Igbo Taken Out Of Context, Says NNPP by Peterobiisathie(f): 6:52pm On Jul 05, 2022
The New Nigeria People’s Party NNPP has dismissed reports that its presidential candidate, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso described the Igbo and Labour Party Presidential Candidate, Peter Obi as incapable of winning elections, noting that the report was “falsely credited” to Kwankwaso.

According to the report, Kwankwaso, while inaugurating the Party’s Gombe State Executive last week, was quoted to have said that the South East (Igbo People) are good in business but at the bottom of politics in Nigeria.

“The said attribution is said to have generated some ill feelings in some political circles in Nigeria, especially between the South East and the NNPP”, said Prof. Rufa’i Ahmed Alkali
National Chairman of the NNPP.

“The said attribution is said to have generated some ill feelings in some political circles in Nigeria, especially between the South East and the NNPP”, said Prof. Rufa’i Ahmed Alkali
National Chairman of the NNPP.

He said as a party that is desirous of changing the situation of the country, NNPP believes that no Nigerian of any geopolitical zone, tribe, ethnic nationality, or religious persuasion is least on the rung of the ladder in the whole effort to bring the desired change in the country.

Alkali said; “The NNPP wishes to categorically state that the statement of its Presidential Candidate, Senator Kwankwaso at the occasion was situated out of contest, as the NNPP Presidential candidate has always emphasized that the Igbos were frontrunners in the fight for the nation’s struggle for independence, and had produced the first President of the country in the person of late Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, the first President of the Senate, Dr. Nwafor Orizu, former Vice President, late Dr. Alex Ekwueme, four former Presidents of the Senate from 1999 to date and other top political office holders.

“NNPP as a political party on the ballot in 2023 believes that it has what it takes like some other political parties to rejuvenate the present situation of the country and will not in any way disparage any zone or people of any political party.
“It is pertinent to state that the discussions with any political party or individual is an ongoing thing that would bring the desired change of a new Nigeria. However, the party or its Presidential candidate would not in any way malign any zone or any individual as we believe that NNPP we desire the votes of all the zones and all electorate to govern Nigeria

“We want to state that NNPP will canvass votes from all Geo-political zones to win the 2023 Presidential election and would not in any way consider any zone less as we have supporters and candidates all over the country”.

Make no mistake about it. I like Kwankwaso but his rhetoric lately exudes nothing shut of arrogance.

On channels TV you said "2023 is South East Chance of playing at the federal level"

Really. I have watched a video interview you granted sitting down. You said Igbos are very good in business but at the bottom when it comes to politics.

He shot himself with that statement.

Abduminmin also granted interview at channels and said NNPP is Igbos last chance at the presidency that Peter Obi should join you.

If Peter can't win election, of all the people in South East contesting why are you after Peter. There are 3 other Igbos in the race. Why not go after them.

You even said Peter's support base is on social media but that you are infantry.

You said Northerners won't vote anyone if you are not on the front burner of the ballot.

Those who doubt peter should keep breathing.

By the time campaign starts. We will see the true love Nigerians have for Obi and their unquenchable desire to rescue Nigeria.

INEC will count votes not structure. People will vote and defend their vote.

The new electoral law albeit makes it very difficult to rig as results will be transmitted electronically.

Peter doesn't need to win all the states. He needs some states and all hands are on deck to get that done.

Kwankwaso and Atiku will share the Northern Vote. Tinubu and Obi will make an intoad into Northern votes.

2023 will be interesting.

Can I remind all those who doubt Peter that INEC has over 95million registered voters.

Total number of voters since 1999 has never exceeded 40 million. There is another 50 million that as never come out to vote and might come out for the first time to vote. That will be the shocker.

Peter will win.

The demographics favour him.

All attempts to pull him down has not worked.

Can anyone find his secondary school sex tape. That might work for those looking for Peter's fall.
