Kwankwaso: I’m Ready to Join APC, But On Clear Terms

 

Former Kano State Governor and leader of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has declared his willingness to rejoin the All Progressives Congress (APC) — but only if the terms are clearly defined.

Speaking in Kano, Kwankwaso reminded Nigerians of his role in the formation of the APC, stressing that he and his allies endured threats from the EFCC, ICPC, police, and SSS during the struggle to establish the party.

“If you said I should enter APC, I want to join APC, and I didn’t say I will not join APC even now, but for what position?” he asked.

Kwankwaso lamented that despite helping the APC rise to power, his group was sidelined during Buhari’s eight-year rule. “We were not given anything, not even a thank you. When we left for PDP, even there, we were denied a Zonal Chairman. They thought if we left, we would enter a bush and die. But today, whoever mentions Nigerian politicians must mention Kwankwaso,” he said.

The NNPP leader insisted that he was not desperate to dump his current party but open to alliances based on honesty and fairness. “We’re not in a hurry to leave the NNPP; we’re happy. However, if there is anyone who wants to work with us truthfully and will not abandon us as before, we are ready,” he said, adding that even the PDP could be reconsidered if it admitted past mistakes and made open commitments.

Kwankwaso’s remarks are already stirring fresh debates about possible political realignments ahead of the next elections.
