“I must caution Nigerians against politics of ethnicity and religion while seeking the support of the public ahead of the 2023 presidential election,” the NNPP flag bearer stated after being welcomed by his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) counterpart, Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State.

“Some people don’t even understand the realities on the ground today. Every Nigerian is looking for a way out. Nobody is waiting for a neighbour or any leader to say this is the way.

“Any party or candidate that comes out with ethnicity or religion, that party or candidate at the national level has failed in the election even before it starts. For those of us who have been in the game for a long time, just prove yourself over the years, and remove every fear.

“There are people who are living in the air and don’t know the level of poverty, anger and hunger in the country.

“What Nigerians want is who can save this country in terms of insecurity, economy and dilapidated infrastructure that we see. Nigerians are not waiting for any person but will take decisions on their own.”

A senatorial candidate in the state, Okoduwa Akhigbe, said that the NNPP is the party of people that can rescue the nation from the present socio-economic quagmire.

He appealed to the people to come out in large numbers on election day to vote for Kwankwaso and all other NNPP candidates.
