Katsina NNPP Deputy Guber Candidate Endorses APC Guber Candidate

A running mate of Nura Khalil, governorship candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in Katsina, Rabe Drama has endorsed Dikko Radda, candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC).

Darma endorsed the APC governorship candidate on Thursday in Katsina.

He said Radda’s victory would boost development in the state.

Darma said the state is in need of someone with the capacity to govern with sincerity and honesty.

“Dr Dikko Radda has the capacity, the qualifications and experience to move the state out of the woods; we need to attain our goals,” he said.

He called on NNPP supporters to back the APC candidate in the March 18 election.

Responding, Radda appreciated Darma for the support and pledged to run an inclusive government if elected.

In a reaction to Darma’s action, Khalil described it as “a betrayal”.

“I am not aware of any alliance. Such action will not discourage me from pursuing the bid to become the governor of Katsina state

“It is disappointing that my running mate and other NNPP officials want to sell the party”, he said.
