Chairman of the Presidential Primary Elections Committee and Ekiti PPN Chairman, Dare Adekolu, who urged members and Nigerians to support and vote for the party’s candidate in the 2019 presidential election, declared Al-Mustapha as the winner after collating results from the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory at the party’s Presidential Primaries/2018 National Convention held in Ado Ekiti.

“PPN has come to redeem Nigeria. PPN has come to save Nigeria from poverty, lack, unemployment and underdevelopment, hence the need for support,” Adekolu said.

The former Chief Security Officer to the late Head of State in his acceptance speech, promised Nigerians good leadership and promised to salvage the country and put it back on the path of growth and prosperity.

Al-Mustapha, who was represented on the occasion by Zakaria Husseini, described the PPN candidate as a detribalised, patriotic Nigerian and experienced administrator, gave the assurance that Al-Mustapha would “provide the missing link in governance in Nigeria and ensure better lives for the citizenry in all spheres of the economy”.
