Kwankwaso to be Obi's Running Mate for 2027 Election

Ibrahim Abdulkarim announced that Rabiu Kwankwaso has agreed to be Peter Obi's running mate in the 2027 presidential election. Abdulkarim, a former governor of Anambra State, made this statement during an interview with Trust TV.

He indicated that the Obidient and Kwankwassiyya movements are already aligning towards the Obi-Kwankwaso ticket. Abdulkarim confirmed that there is a clear agreement between Obi and Kwankwaso regarding this partnership.

The announcement comes in the wake of Kwankwaso's recent political maneuvers, including his departure from the New Nigerian Peoples Party (NNPP) and the African Democratic Congress (ADC), which has raised questions about the intentions of these political figures. The collaboration aims to consolidate support for the upcoming presidential race, positioning both leaders as key players in Nigeria's political landscape for 2027.
