Some candidates of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) have disclosed plans to organise a mega rally in support of the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu.

In a joint statement released on Monday in Osogbo, the NNPP candidates contesting for seats in the Osun State House of Assembly said the rally is to show their support for the APC flagbearer.

The NNPP candidate for Ifelodun State Constituency, Muideen Afolabi, on behalf of eight other candidates, added that they have also commenced a door-to-door campaign for Tinubu.

Afolabi lamented that the NNPP has not been campaigning for the presidential candidate of the party, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, and other candidates contesting the poll in the state.

He said, “In collaboration with other National Assembly candidates who earlier dumped Kwankwaso, nine of us, House of Assembly candidates are set to organize a mega rally for Tinubu where masses of Osun would be convinced on why they should support him.

“Less than 2 months to the 2023 polls, NNPP has not been campaigning for the presidential candidate of the party, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, and other candidates contesting the poll in Osun. We can’t wait any longer.

“We commend Secretary, Tinubu/Shetimma Presidential Campaign Council, Hon. James Abiodun Faleke, for always giving them listening ears and for embracing us, having discovered our ability to deliver Osun for Tinubu.”
