A political associate of the former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, Ibrahim Abdulkarim, has revealed that the erstwhile governor of Kano State, Rabiu Kwankwaso, has agreed to a political arrangement with Obi.
According to him, Kwankwaso has agreed to be Obi’s deputy in the 2027 presidential race.
Abdulkarim made the claim during an interview on Trust TV.
He added that the Obidients and the Kwankwassiyya Movements are already aligning towards the Obi/Kwankwaso ticket.
Asked if Obi and Kwankwaso have struck a deal, Abdulkarim said, “Yes, I can categorically tell you that they have agreed.”
“We all know that. Both the Obidients and the Kwankwassiyya Movements are aware of the agreement.”
Kwankwaso recently decamped from the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP, to the African Democratic Congress.
His move stirred suspicion that the two political gladiators may have agreed to run for the 2027 presidency on a single ticket.
