Presidential candidate of the New Nigerian People’s Party (NNPP), in the 2023 election, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has declared that he would prefer to quit politics altogether than go back to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
This was as he said that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu pleaded with him to return to the ruling APC, but he pointedly told the president saying; “I would rather quit politics entirely than go back to the APC”.
Kwankwaso, who stated these while dismissing the insinuations in certain quarters that he was planning to return to the APC, said that it was true that Tinubu pleaded with him to return to the ruling party.
In the words of Kwankwaso; “Without a doubt, Tinubu pleaded with me to return and even promised that any condition I set would be met for my return to the APC.
“But I refused his offer and made it clear that I would rather quit politics altogether than go back to the APC,” he said.
The former governor of Kano State further said; “As for the 2027 elections, we will build a strong political movement that will end APC’s rule”.
