NewsOnline reports that the presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Rabiu Kwankwaso has stated that he would accept the outcome of the 2023 general election even if it does not favour him.
The former Kano State governor said he would accept the outcome of the election if the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) conducts free and fair polls.
Kwankwanso disclosed this, on Monday, at a town hall meeting with staff and students of the University of Abuja (UNIABUJA).
He engaged with students and management staff of the university on his manifesto, including security, education, youth inclusivity, unemployment, and the economy.
“I have no problem with accepting losing election. The best way to accept the 2023 election is by doing the right thing – free, fair and of course credible election,” he said.
The former defence minister also promised to increase the numerical strength of the country’s armed forces, as part of his security strategy.
“I have no problem with accepting losing election. The best way to accept the 2023 election is by doing the right thing – free, fair and of course credible election.
“We have decided and it’s there in our blueprint that we will tackle the issue of insecurity. We are very angry that today, as we’re sitting here, we have so many people, young men and women being kidnapped.
“We will give a lot of opportunity to the young men and women to serve this country as members of the armed forces, members of the police, members of the DSS and so on,” he said.
