“North-West has 24 million registered voters. And the whole of that space called North-West is left for the Lion (Kwankwaso) alone.
”Nigerians should know what is facing them. Take North-East where I come from, Kwankwaso will win Bauchi, he will win Gombe, he will win Adamawa, he will win Taraba. The only states where he would have to wrestle with the APC are Borno and Yobe.”

While speaking on the chances of the NNPC flag bearer in other northern regions, Galadima stated that Kwankwaso still stands a chance in the northcentral, noting that his associate will have it all in Plateau, Nasarawa, Benue, and Kogi.

He further stated that Kwankwaso will do awesomely well in Cross River, Akwa Ibom, Edo, and also southwest giant, Oyo state.

Galadima, however, placed emphasis on Delta state, noting that if the down south state falls into the stable, Kwankwaso will be declared winner of the 2023 presidential polls.

In another development, the NNPP is yet to meet the terms of the agreement for Senator Ibrahim Shekarau's defection from the APC, hence the unrest in the party.

This has also paved a way for the ruling party and the PDP to be wooing the northern senator into their fold ahead of 2023.

One of the conditions given to the NNPP by Shekarau is that his loyalists will be given nomination tickets for 2023, a situation yet to happen.
