Kwankwaso Picks APC Presidential Nomination Form

Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso has bought his nomination form to contest in the 2015 presidential election. He purchased the form on Thursday in Abuja, and stated that his interest to be in the race is to add value to the party.

Kwankwaso, a member of the All Progressives Congress, APC, stressed that his interest in the election is not a do-or-die affair, promising to respect other members of the party who have also indicated their interest in the contest.

The Governor paid the sum of N27.5 million to get the form.

Ex-Head of State, Muhammadu Buhari; and former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar are also hoping to emerge as the APC flag-bearer in the presidential poll next year.

Speaking in Abuja on Thursday, Kwankwaso vowed to play by the rules.

“It is not a do-or-die affair. I assure you we will play the game according to the rules. Our participation is to add value to the party,” the Governor said.

“I also want to thank those who contributed to ‎purchase these forms. I have the capacity to buy the forms but they secretly paid and assured me there is enough money for the campaigns,” he added.
