Mustapha Rabiu Kwankwaso, son of the 2023 New Nigeria Peoples Party presidential candidate, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, has announced his resignation from the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), signaling a political shift as he moves to join the African Democratic Congress (ADC). Kwankwaso disclosed this in a statement shared Monday via his Facebook handle, where he confirmed that his decision to leave the NNPP was deliberate and carefully considered. “I want to inform the general public that as of today, I have officially resigned my membership from the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP),” he stated. He added that he is currently in the process of joining the ADC, expressing optimism about the new phase of his political career.
