The presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso has described as rubbish the rumour peddled that he would merge with the presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

 

Newsonline reports that Kwankwaso said such a merger with Tinubu or Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) can never happen.

 

Kwankwaso, a former governor of Lagos State, made the clarification on Sunday, in Borno State, at the opening of the state headquarters of the party which was sealed within the week by the police.

This was as Kwankwaso refuted plans of forming an alliance with the presidential candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, and Bola Tinubu of the All Progressive Congress, APC.

 

Addressing journalists in Maiduguri, Borno State,  the NNPP presidential candidate stated that such lies were peddled by mischievous politicians.

 

According to Kwankwaso: “Some people are terribly mischievous and I don’t see how any of these four political parties at this critical time will accept joining one another.

 

“Some elements are making mischievous postings and insults on social media, but we believe in sportsmanship, and we are out for a good campaign.

 

“To say NNPP will join or withdraw for APC or PDP is absolutely rubbish; it can’t happen.”
