Latest about Rabiu Kwankwaso, NNPP, 2023 election
According to him, critics have sponsored some fake news about the NNPP, such as that the party was deregistered before the Osun election, that its presidential candidate, Rabiu Kwankwaso, will step down for another presidential candidate and many others.
His statement reads in part:
“Now they are saying that the party is broke. Well, at least they will not say that the party collected other people’s money either through oil money or drug deals to run our affairs. We are happy that whatever we are doing we are using our legitimate money and contributions from members who are passionate about this party.”

The lawmaker revealed that he and Kwankwaso are long-time family friends, but because of politics, Kwankwaso refused to send him condolence when his father died.
Doguwa said Kwankwaso and his family were so close that he would sometime come to their family house to pass nights together with him.
