Kwankwaso in his address at the Chatham House vowed to deal with poverty and poor education in the north if elected.

He said,” I built over 500 classrooms while I was governor of Kano state, and when elected I will bring more people on board to tackle education needs in Nigeria.”

On insecurity, Kwankwaso recalled his time as Defense minister and Special adviser to the president of Somalia and promised to recruit more into the Nigeria armed forces.

The former governor is running for president against some top contenders which includes, APC’s frontman, Bola Tinubu,  Peter Obi of Labour Party whose popularity has recently increased as a result of the youth of Nigeria continuing to give him a ton of support, Peoples Democratic Party’s candidate, and Atiku Abubakar who is a former vice president of the federation.
