The 2023 Presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, has criticized the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) under President Bola Tinubu, stating that the party’s unpopular policies have worsened poverty and hunger in the country.
Kwankwaso, speaking at the 7th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the NNPP in Abuja, described the PDP as a “dead party,” citing its current internal crisis.
Kwankwaso emphasized that the NNPP has become the only party capable of providing true leadership to address the needs of Nigerians and bring relief to the people.
He said, “Our party has been doing so well that we, at the leadership level, are satisfied with our progress.
“And of course, this success always attracts envy from outside and attacks from within and outside the party. I am so happy that despite all the challenges, today, our party is the fastest-growing party in this country.
“I remember when I visited Katsina State to open our state office, I mentioned that the PDP was dead, and there were many concerns within the PDP fold.
“I’m sure, at that time, many didn’t understand what I was saying, but now they must agree that the party is falling apart and imploding.
