The National Leader of New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has appealed to the people of Edo to vote for the party’s candidate in the Sept. 21 governorship poll.
Kwankwaso said when he presented Certificate of Return to the party’s candidate for the election, Dr Azemhe Azena.
“Therefore the only alternative that the people of Edo State have today is our party, the NNPP.
“I am happy that we have a very credible candidate, a man of God, somebody who has a lot of credibility known to the people, and the masses in Edo.
“I believe this is the time to advise the good people of Edo to do the right thing, to do what the Kano people have done.
“They should run away from people who are going around to give them peanuts for the masses to vote for them,” he said.
Kwankwaso added: “You know what is happening today in this country in terms of economy, in terms of security, and so on.
“We believe that this gentleman is capable of handling all those for the good people of Edo just as we are doing in Kano.”
He called on other NNPP aspirants to rally support for Azena to ensure victory at the election.
“Our prayer is that all of them should come together and work with him to ensure the success of the party,” Kwankwaso said.
He commended the NNPP primary election committee for conducting a credible primary that produced Azena.
