The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) has dismissed reports that it is planning to collapse its party’s structure and back the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Speaking at a press conference in Lagos State on Wednesday, the National Chairman of the NNPP, Professor Rufai Alkali, said the party wouldn’t back another candidate aside from Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, its presidential candidate.
