The Kwankwasiyya Movement has dismissed reports that NDC vice-presidential candidate Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso threatened to leave the party over candidate substitutions.
Spokesman Habibu Sale Mohammed said Kwankwaso described the reports as “mere rumours” and that neither the movement nor its leader was complaining.
Some media reports claimed Kwankwaso would exit the Nigeria Democratic Congress if loyalists nominated by the bloc were replaced.
The reports followed the substitution of several candidates submitted by the group, with allegations that it violated an earlier power-sharing agreement.
Mohammed said the claims were baseless.
He explained that party primaries were conducted on May 29 in line with the Electoral Act and INEC guidelines, and winners were affirmed the same day.
Mohammed added that NDC stakeholders had agreed on a consensus model where necessary and submitted the candidate list without internal disputes.
According to Mohammed, Kwankwaso has not communicated any grievance with the party to the movement.
