Kwankwaso’s entry into NNPP propelled party to prominence – Habib

A member of the New Nigeria Peoples Party in Kano Malam Hisham Habib has asserted that the entry of the national leader and also presidential candidate in 2023 Dr Rabiu Kwankwaso has uplifted the party more in its entire years of existence.

The former Kano State chairman of the party said as a member and a witness of the party s activities before and after Kwankwaso entered the party with his supporters, the statements credited to the party s founder were without decorum and contentment.

He said the party was at it s lowest ebb and the leadership has not been able to resuscitate the weak structures especially in the states stressing that the founder Dr Boniface Aniebonam and his loyalists should be grateful to God for routing Kwankwaso into a party which cannot sponsor delegates to a convention talkless of winning at the polls.

“Kwankwaso entrance brought NNPP the first major victory that was spectacular and unimaginable, we won the governorship with the highest number in the country that no other governor scored a million votes is a milestone and a feat, moreover the party s presence at the national assembly was unprecedented”, he said.

He urged the Board of Trustee Chairman to display the better part of maturity expected of a statesman and ignore the evil machinations of the saboteurs who are scared of the successes recoded by the party and the prospect it has in the near future, while also emphasizing that Engineer Kwankwaso has been consistent in his dealings with people who supported him which earned him respect globally and nationally.

The ex chairman said Nigerians from all walks of life trooped into the party because of the former Defence minister and the majority of members nationwide see Kwankwaso as the leader which naturally puts him in front considering his antecedents in the political landscape.
