"I have no doubt that the duo will use their wealth of communications experience and vast networks to carry out our mandate for a new Nigeria," he said. -he declared.

Mr. Jibrin is a former member of the House of Representatives. He joined the NNPP in May after falling out with Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State.

His defection from the All Progressives Congress (APC) came as a shock to many given his allegiance to the party's presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu.

Mr. Johnson, meanwhile, is an attorney and managing partner at Agbese & Johnson (legal consultants). He is also the President of the African Institute for Business Development and Management.

With the choice of Mr Johnson as spokesperson, it could be said that Mr Kwankwaso followed the model of his counterparts in the APC and PDP who also appointed lawyers to speak on their behalf at the approaching the start of the presidential campaign.
