Kwankwaso said:

“Distinguished ladies and gentlemen, let me thank you for coming far and wide to hear my decision to run for the president of Nigeria.

“Today, I declare under PDP to offer a leadership as all is not well in our polity.

“On this day, I offer you a great leadership anchored on our constitution.”

The Senator had to change the venue on Wednesday morning for his formal presidential declaration, after his permission to use the Eagle Square in Abuja was allegedly denied by President Muhammadu Buhari's administration.
