    NNPP’s Kwankwaso confirms merger talks with the Labour Party

    Former governor of Kano state and Presidential candidate of New Nigerian Peoples Party, Rabiu Kwankwaso has said his party is closed to reach alliance with Labour Party (LP) ahead of 2023 general election.

    Peter Obi is the Presidential candidate of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

    Speaking with Hausa BBC Kwankwaso said, “We are really talking to Peter Obi, or at least saying that the committee is working to look into the matter (and cooperate with him), and friends and family are coming to talk to us about it.”
    He noted that their collaboration was especially important as the All Progressives (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had not fielded an Igbo vice-presidential candidate.
