Kwankwaso Pledges To Work For A Greater Nigeria

The Presidential Candidate of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso has pledged to continue to strive toward making Nigeria great.

Kwankwaso said this at the 3rd Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso Colloquium organised by the Kwankwasiyya Development Foundation to mark his 66th birthday on Monday in Abuja.

The former governor of Kano State described education as the best investment politicians can make in the people,saying he had always invested in education and human development because of their impact on people’s lives.

Kwankwaso, who said that he had always given himself a target on what to do for humanity, said that more than 3,000 students benefited from his scholarship programmes from 2011 to 2015 when he served as the state governor.

He said that created the foundation as a pay back to the people for their massive support during elections in Kano State.

“When we advertised in 2019, believing that there are few people with first class because in our first scholarship we said anybody with first class, we exhausted all in Kano. Second class upper, we exhausted them.

“We were in second class lower when I left government in 2015 and that’s why we have over 3,000 of them in 14 countries across the world on scholarship,” he said.

Kwankwaso said that Nigerians across the states of the federation benefited from the scholarship because it was opened to all persons resident in Kano, irrespective of their states of origin.
