A FORMER Kano State Governor, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, has emerged as the presidential aspirant of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP)

Kwankwaso emerged at the party’s presidential primary election today in the Velodrome of the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja.

Similarly, a renowned civil rights activist and founder of the Reset Nigeria Initiative, Prince Malik Ado-Ibrahim, on Wednesday, won the presidential primary of the Young Progressives Party.

He polled 66 votes to defeat his rival, Ruby Issac, with four votes.

Though there were about 74 accredited delegates, only 70 voted.

A former chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Adamu Garba, had been scheduled to be part of the YPP presidential aspirants but withdrew from the race, saying that he suspended his ambitions to unite the youths.
