Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, the 2023 presidential aspirant of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), has made a bold declaration to significantly reduce the All Progressives Congress’ (APC) votes in Kano State during the 2027 elections. This vow was made at his residence in Kano during a meeting with former councillors and senior special advisers who served under the previous administration.
Kwankwaso expressed his gratitude to his team for their tireless efforts during the 2023 elections, which led to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) securing only 15,000 votes in Kano. He attributed this success to the NNPP’s remarkable feat, achieved despite being a new political platform with a late-starting campaign.
“Now, it’s our turn to diminish APC’s influence,” Kwankwaso said. “We will work tirelessly to ensure their votes are reduced to less than 15,000 in Kano come 2027.” The former governor emphasized the need for dedication and grassroots mobilization to solidify the NNPP’s position as a dominant force in Kano and beyond.
Kwankwaso urged his supporters to remain focused on delivering results that would secure the party’s success in future elections. His determination to reduce APC’s influence in Kano is seen as a strategic move to strengthen the NNPP’s presence in the state.
The APC has previously accused Kwankwaso of attempting to undermine the political relevance of its National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje, in Kano State ¹. However, Kwankwaso’s latest vow suggests that he is committed to expanding the NNPP’s influence in the region.
