Kwankwaso said he has no plan of joining forces with Nigeria's number one opposition party which he described as a platform that lacks what it takes to move Nigeria forward

According to him,
“Don’t forget we have candidates across board now in NNPP ahead of the 2023 elections, so you will expect me to leave and join others in the PDP? It is not going to happen.
"I was a foundation member of the two major parties and they have nothing to offer again, that is why I left them and I can’t go back.”
Kwankwaso, therefore, called on Nigerians to vote out both the APC and the PDP in 2023 as they have both failed to realise the citizens' collective dreams.
