Rabiu Kwankwaso, the national chairman of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), has urged protest organizers to refocus their efforts on advocating change through democratic elections rather than the planned nationwide protest on August 1, 2024.
The former governor of Kano State stressed in a statement issued on Friday night that elections are a more efficient means of bringing about democratic change than protests are of overthrowing an inept government.
He maintained that using the power of the vote is the only way to bring about long-lasting change.
