The 2023 presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Rabiu Kwankwaso, has urged members of the Kwankwasiyya movement and his political supporters to remain committed to their shared vision.
Kwankwaso made the call on Monday while hosting supporters and political associates at his residence in Kano during the annual Sallah homage.
In a post on his verified X handle, the former Kano State governor stressed the need for sustained loyalty and active participation among members of the movement.
He acknowledged the presence of key stakeholders at the event, including the Kano State Deputy Governor, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, as well as federal and state lawmakers.
“Special thanks go to all our party and movement stalwarts, as well as our committed social media lieutenants, for your relentless support, loyalty, and tireless efforts in advancing our shared vision,” Kwankwaso said.
“It was also heartwarming to be joined by the Kano State Deputy Governor, Comrade Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, alongside our federal and state legislators, as well as former commissioners and government officials in the state.
“We were also privileged to welcome the national leadership of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), ably led by our National Chairman, Ahmed Ajuji and Bishop Isaac Idahosa, as well as key stalwarts of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Kano, led by Hajiya Naja’atu Muhammad and Hon. Musa Ungogo, the party’s Kano State Chairman.
“The occasion was made even more vibrant and memorable by the presence of Their Excellencies: Peter Obi, Seyi Makinde, and Seriake Dickson, along with their esteemed entourages,” he said.
Kwankwaso described the Sallah homage as a longstanding tradition of the Kwankwasiyya movement and appreciated the turnout of supporters.
“I extend my sincere and heartfelt appreciation to every one of you who took time out of your busy schedules to grace this joyous celebration. Your presence truly made the day special,” he added.
The NNPP leader also commended entertainers and organisers for their contributions to the success of the event.
“I also wish to express profound gratitude to our talented Kwankwasiyya entertainers for their unwavering dedication and remarkable contributions to the vibrancy of our movement,” he said.
