The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) presidential candidate in the 2023 elections, Rabiu Kwankwaso, has expressed openness to a merger, acknowledging the necessity of collaboration for political success in Nigeria.
In an interview with selected radio stations, monitored by Vanguard, Kwankwaso discussed the prospect of NNPP’s coalition with other parties to form a formidable force.
