Speaking on behalf of the Sen. Rabiu Kwankwaso Presidential Campaign, Mr. Ladipo Johnson, refuted rumors that the candidate was thinking about endorsing different candidates.
Johnson was responding to rumors spreading on social media that Kwankwaso, the presidential candidate for the New Nigeria People's Party (NNPP), was thinking about resigning in favor of either Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the PDP nominee, or Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, the APC nominee.
Johnson stated: "Kwankwaso is in the race to win" in a statement made on Sunday in Lagos.
"I have no idea how or why individuals make these claims and conjectures. Kwankwaso is unable to and will not resign in favor of anyone.
As a result of his belief that he would bring about the needed transformation in Nigeria, he declared that Kwankwaso will run for president in 2023 and compete to the bitter end.
"Kwankwaso is not negotiating right now. He is qualified, has demonstrated competence, and possesses the political will to take Nigeria to new heights.
