The presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, Senator Musa Kwakwanso has described those who peddle the rumour of merger with another party are failed politicians.
Kwankwaso said he was no longer planning to merge with other political parties ahead of next year’s election.
He said this on Thursday, while speaking with newsmen in Abeokuta, shortly after he addressed the NNPP members at the party secretariat in the state capital.
Kwakwanso however got angry when he was asked to speak on the rumoured merger with another parties , saying, “that is absolute nonsense. You see, we believe that we are not above the three or four parties in this country, but by 2023, next year, by the grace of God, the NNPP will win the election at national and all other levels.
“So, these are people who are failed politicians who have nothing to tell Nigerians other than to spread unnecessary rumour of a merger.
“Merger is already gone. We have our candidates. In all the parties, everybody is campaigning. So, disregard that nonsense. Don’t ask me that rubbish.”
While addressing members of the NNPP, the presidential candidate pledged to strengthen the Nigeria’s armed forces with one million recruits, if elected president.
He added that his government would grant education at all levels to citizens and place priority on youth and women empowerment.
The State Chairman of the party, Olaposi Oginni, warned Nigerians against returning the All Progressives Congress into power both at the state and federal levels.
Oginni said, “Only lunatics would vote for the APC.”
He said due to the level of suffering and poor economy under the APC government, no Nigerian was expected to vote for the ruling party in 2023.
