Kwankwaso Discusses Political Future with NDC, PRP Leaders

Rabiu Kwankwaso, the former governor of Kano State, has announced that he is currently in talks with leaders from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) concerning his political future. He clarified that no final decision has been made regarding his political affiliations, particularly in light of challenges facing the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

Kwankwaso's statement, shared via his social media account, addressed recent media reports suggesting a potential realignment within the ADC. He emphasized that the recent Supreme Court judgment affirming the legitimacy of David Mark's leadership of the National Working Committee has left the ADC in a precarious position.

Kwankwaso has previously supported candidates in presidential primaries, including Muhammadu Buhari in 2014 and Atiku Abubakar in 2019, but he has not declared any intent to run for president in 2027 or endorsed any candidates. He aims to protect democratic interests and will announce his decisions at the appropriate time.
