…. vows to defeat Kwankwaso, Atiku, Obi in Kano
The Presidential Candidate of African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, on Friday, said his party has greater chances of winning in Kano State compared to other candidates in the 2023 general elections.
Mr Sowore disclosed this in Abuja while announcing Haruna Magashi as his official running mate in the forthcoming general elections.
In his speech, he said that two the power lords in the country, All Progressives Congress (APC) and People’s Democratic Party (PDP) will gallantly lose to his party given the performance of the former and the internal crisis in the latter.
“We hope to defeat APC (All Progressives Congress) over there (Kano) because the governor has messed up; we know that we will defeat PDP (Peoples Democratic Party), that’s the party that’s imploding as we speak,” Sowore said in a three minutes video shared across his social media account.
Despite the recent acceptance enjoyed by Rabiu Kwankwaso’s New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in Kano, both the ruling APC and PDP still command the largest percentage of supporters in the state.
Not ruling the former Kano governor out of his major contenders in the state, Mr Sowore said the influence of his running mate, Mr Magashi, is enough to deliver Kano for AAC while Peter Obi’s Labour Party (LP) stands no chance at all in the state.
“We don’t need to talk about the Labour Party in Kano because the party doesn’t exist.
“We believe that we will defeat Alhaji Kwankwaso and his party, the NNPP (New Nigeria Peoples Party) in Kano because we have got someone who is from there,” the AAC presidential candidate boasted.
