A presidential aspirant under the platform of the New
Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) Olufemi Ajadi, has withdrawn from the 2023 race,
to support the former Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso.
Ajadi, at a press conference he addressed at the NUJ
secretariat, Okelewo, Abeokuta, said he has stepped down to be the running mate
of Kwakwanso, who is also eyeing the presidential seat.
The entrepreneur said: “Ladies and gentlemen, I Olufemi
Ajadi Oguntoyinbo, having considered many things, and in the interest of our
great party and beloved country, today, relinquish my presidential ambition, to
support the presidential candidacy of Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso as his
running mate.”
The aspirant said this was done in the interest of the party
and the nation, saying, “Senator Kwakwanso is a great Nigerian, an accomplished
politician and administrator who will lift this country.”
Speaking about the state of the nation, Ajadi regretted that
nothing was working well in the nation.
“Nigeria is a country that God Himself has blessed, but look
around you today, you will agree with me that things are not working well.
“There is hunger in the land, despite Nigeria having arable
land and varieties of foods and crops.
“There is insecurity in the country, despite an elected
government, with the police, the Army, the Navy and the Air force
“Our children finish school and there are no jobs. Is it a
wonder that there is crime everywhere? Roads are in terrible condition. There
is no public water supply, no electricity and all the basic necessities of
life. But we have a government. We have billions of Naira in cash and assets. I
now ask, What is the missing link?
“Distinguished Nigerians, the missing link is selfless,
sincere, and servant-based leadership, guided by the highest sense of equity
and fairness. That is what we in the NNPP have come to offer,” he explained.
