2023: NNPP Seeks Tinubu, Atiku Withdrawal From Presidential Race Over Drug Peddling, Corruption Allegations.
The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) has called on the presidential candidates of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu to withdraw from the presidential race over serious allegations of corruption and drug peddling that have made mockery of the 2023 general election.
In a signed statement Dr Agbo Major,
National Publicity Secretary, NNPP,
Nigeria has been brought to ridicule and disrepute before the community of nations over accusations of high level corruption and drug peddling against Atiku and Tinubu. He that goes to equity must come with a clean hand.
NNPP however demands the immediate withdrawal of both presidential candidates to answer to charges preferred against them in court.
” It is justice juxtaposed for them to continue in the presidential race with heavy allegations of wrongdoings on their shoulders. It is moral burden fie the two candidates to continue in this race at a time Nigerians are looking for a younger and unblemished crop of leaders”.
“There is no moral justification for Atiku and Tinubu to strive to rule the nation until the court decides their fates one way or the other. National interest supersedes personal interests, aggrandizement and grandstanding in the quest for a better, greater, progressive, equitable and just democratic nation”,he said
According to the NNPP, Nigerians are tired of recycled politicians who have numerous cases of corruption, drugs, birth/educational certificates, health and questionable sources of wealth.
“Citizens want men and women of integrity, visionary, purposeful, resourceful, dynamic and transformational leaders to usher them to a new and better Nigeria we all desire and deserve”.
The party said Senator (Engr) Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, is the man of the moment to give Nigerians a new lease of life after years of wandering in political wilderness from the oppressive APC and PDP regimes.
The party called on eligible Nigerians to collect their PVCs now and let their voice be heard loud and clear in the forthcoming elections. Your vote is your power to elect credible, resourceful, courageous and progressive leaders that will deliver dividends of democracy to the masses not carnage.
