Kwankwaso Denies Protest Plans, Advocates Peaceful Action

Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, the former governor of Kano State and a candidate for the vice presidency under the Democratic Coalition, publicly denied allegations circulating on social media regarding plans for a protest against rising insecurity in Nigeria. In a statement released on Monday, Kwankwaso described the claims as false and not reflective of the political party's position.

He warned the public against spreading misinformation and emphasized that neither he nor his party supports actions that could lead to a breakdown of public order or destruction of property. Kwankwaso reiterated the commitment of his party to peaceful, lawful engagement in addressing national challenges and insisted that political grievances should be resolved through the ballot box rather than protests.

He expressed confidence in his party's electoral prospects and affirmed that the democratic process remains a legitimate avenue for political change.
