Kwankwaso Breaks Silence On Dumping PDP, Reveals Next Move

Adamu recalled that Kwankwaso announced his resignation from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on March 29.

He said: “It is ridiculous that a Presidential Aspirant will entice an opposition party leader with money to woe delegates from his own party”

“We deny this spurious allegation. We urge the general public to disregard the false information as it is totally false and misleading”

Kwankwaso urged his supporters to be focused, determined, and ignore “stories paid to smear” his “soaring popularity.”

The 811 PDP delegates are made up of one national delegate chosen from each of the 774 LGAs.

Kwankwaso a former Minister of Defense is a presidential aspirant on the platform of the NNPP while Wike is a presidential aspirant of the PDP.
