Kwankwaso and Tinubu<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Rabiu Kwankwaso, presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), has expressed that if he feels he won\u2019t stand a chance in the 2023 general election, he could recommend Bola Tinubu.<\/p>\n

Kwankwaso stated this on Sunday, in an interview with ARISE TV.<\/p>\n

The former Kano governor also said he doesn\u2019t feel threatened by Tinubu and Kashim Shettima, who are the presidential and vice-presidential candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC), respectively.<\/p>\n

He, however, added that he has reservations about if the APC will campaign based on the party\u2019s current performance under President Muhammadu Buhari.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope he will take it easy so that we can continue with the struggle to ensure one solid and prosperous Nigeria. I\u2019m so happy about that combination. My only worry is the platform,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know he is a strategist \u2014 Bola Tinubu \u2014 he is a good man. I had reasons to sit down with him uncountable number of times from 1992 to date.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish I will see him to ask him what he will tell Nigerians that he will do differently from what Muhammadu Buhari is doing today.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is my serious concern for him. Ordinarily, if I cannot get it, I can recommend him, but it\u2019s going to be like building something on zero.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
