New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, presidential candidate in
the 2023 election, Musa Kwankwaso has expressed dissatisfaction over what he
described as poor printing of the party’s logo by the Independent National
Electoral Commission, INEC.
He said what the commission presented as the NNPP logo was
enough to cancel the February 25 election, insisting that many of his
supporters were disenfranchised.
Kwankwaso, who stated this on Thursday, during the National
Executive Committee meeting of the party in Abuja, threatened to seek redress
in court if INEC did not look into the situation in subsequent elections.
“I think this is an opportunity to disclose that all our members were unhappy with how our logo was presented on ballot papers. Sadly, we had to face these challenges at the last minute. The majority of people, including my humble self, struggled very hard to identify our logo. I believe our party will sit down now and work out how to present our logo in the coming election.
“My appeal to either INEC is that one of the problems of our
logo is the quality of printing, and now we are going for elections in three or
four states.
“We don’t want to be in a hurry to go to court on some of
these issues. But I believe under normal circumstances, what INEC presented as
our logo in a civilized society, is good enough to cancel the national
election. We were disenfranchised,” he said.
While expressing satisfaction over the party’s overall
performance in the 2023 general elections, Kwankwaso explained that the NNPP
gained popularity nationwide within the shortest possible time before the
polls.
