Joining APC Will Guarantee Our Failure – NNPP
The national chairman of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Dr Ajuji Ahmed, says the party is not holding any secret discussions with President Bola Tinubu or the Presidency.
Ahmed equally said the party is fully preparing for the 2027 general elections and is not holding any secret discussions with President Bola Tinubu or the Presidency.
According to him, “I can tell you for free that the national leader of the NNPP is not romancing or making any conversation with either the President or with the Presidency and that is a genuine statement, not a political one.”
Dr Ahmed said the battle for Kano in 2027 will be decided by the people, not by joining any political alliance.
He insisted that the NNPP will succeed based on its strength and plans, not by teaming up with the APC.
“I don’t believe that because we want to be successful, we have to join the APC. We believe that joining the APC will guarantee our failure in Kano,” he told the Nation.
He added that the NNPP aims to grow nationwide and position itself as a strong contender for the presidency in 2027.
Ahmed argued that aside from the APC, the NNPP is the only party with a solid nationwide structure across all states and local governments.
He said the party is open to any aspirant who wants to contest its presidential ticket, and that even though Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso is influential, “he is not the deciding factor. The deciding factor is the NWC of the party. And he knows that and he will respect that.”
