The supporters of Kano Strongman, Musa Kwankwaso, have started campaigning for an Obi/Kwankwaso alliance to rescue Nigeria.

Supporters of Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, National Leader of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), have proposed a joint presidential ticket pairing Peter Obi with Kwankwaso ahead of the 2027 general election.

Speaking on behalf of the support groups in Kano on Friday, Abba Sadauki Gwale said the proposal reflects the desire of Kwankwaso loyalists to support an alliance capable of rescuing Nigeria from its current challenges.

Gwale said the Obi–Kwankwaso ticket could emerge under any political platform, stressing that the current political trajectory shows a clear shift in public sentiment.

“If the duo gets a chance in the upcoming election, Nigeria will be a better place. We are tired of insecurity, hunger and starvation,” he said.

According to him, the proposed alliance is aimed at uniting Obi’s strong support base in the South with Kwankwaso’s formidable following in the North, creating a broad national coalition capable of challenging the ruling party.

Gwale said the partnership is driven by a shared ambition to wrest power from the ruling All Progressives Congress and its leader, Bola Tinubu, and to deliver meaningful change for Nigerians.

He added that both Obi and Kwankwaso have consistently emphasised policies focused on improving the welfare of ordinary Nigerians, noting that their message of hope and reform is resonating widely.

“As 2027 approaches, all eyes are on the Obi–Kwankwaso alliance to see how it will translate this momentum into votes,” Gwale said.

Addressing speculations that Kwankwaso had made demands to join the APC, Gwale dismissed such claims as outrageous, insisting that Kwankwaso’s political decisions are guided by the interests of his supporters nationwide.

He also maintained that Kwankwaso continues to command massive grassroots support in Kano and beyond, despite recent political realignments in the state.

Once you start getting this kind of news reportage you know that the deal is already concluded.

An Obi/Kwankwaso ticket even under a Birthday Party will run Tinubu and his Sheeples of governors out of town before noon on Election Day even if Seyi Tinubu is INEC chairman.

With what is coming, Tinubu and APC would have wished they allowed Electronic Transmission of result.

Game on!

And the tears can now start flowing.

This ticket will send Tinubu back to Lagos no matter how he plans to rig

They still need atikus blessings. So I hope they can come together peacefully. Atiku needs to convince his voters base to support them

Another fruitless ventures.

Kwankwaso will give Obi too much trouble,

Instead of this Obi let BAT Continue,

Nonsense,I'll keep scrolling. Thank you for posting Nonsense.

Would Kwankwaso want to deputise for Obi? I don't think so

Kwankwaso wey no gree for alliance the last time

That’s your opinion

Obi got 6 million plus, while Kwankwaso go 1 million Votes..

You should know who should deputize who ..

Una too Dey overrate northerners, that’s why they are looking down on you guys

Forget all this alliance if real time transition of voters results does not occur

An alliance thought to have happened in 2023, but for Kwankwaso's pride and stupidity

I swear. I'm still weary of that man. Very senseless and might even cause problems for obi if they are successful

For me, it should be Kwankwaso -Obi because Kwankwaso is ahead of Obi in terms of performance as governors. However, Obi has a stronger appeal in the south while Kwankwaso doesn't have its equivalent in the north

It's official, Emilokan, game over 📌💯.

just a reminder no INEC polling unit on social media

We don't want any alliance with boko Haram

You are very correct! Good combination.

What they failed to do in 2023. This greedy man The top will ensure mechaneries to frustrate it

Don't mind the stupid man. He's a drowning man now and he has no choice. His pride didn't allow it to happen in 2023 and with the political arrangement now, he has no choice

dominique:

It's a big lie. It is Obidenrs that photoshopped Peter Obi into the picture.

Kwankwaso can NEVER be a 2nd to someone he's superior to, in all ramifications - academics, achievement and status.

It is like Real Madrid begging to use Enyimba stadium

Anything that will make APC government leave aso rock is welcome

He's just desperate now as he has no control over any structure. Obi should be concerned because he rejected same alliance in 2023. Why does he want it now?

Just a reminder, the last time you made this ignorant comment, six millions votes emerged after voter surpression. You were beaten blue black in your string hold Lagos.

Kwank just woke up from his reverie. Anyway better late than never. Let's hope he can still generate one million vote. Add that to Obi's 10 million Eyenose slashed to 6 million that's 11 million.

The most important thing at this point is making sure Obi's votes are protected. That is far more important and what they should be working on.

Nothing is coming!

It has already come

And it has come to stay

I'm talking about tribalism and ethnicity

This is the only ticket that can defeat Tinubu hands down, unfortunately it will never happen. Kwankwaso will not be Obi's deputy. It just doesn't serve his political interests. He will have to wait for Obi to finish 8 years before he gets a chance to run for presidency. Right now as thing stand, if Tinubu completes his second term Kwankwaso is already the biggest northern politician after Atiku, he stands a much better chance of contesting and winning in 2031, at which time Atiku will be 85. Moreover, if he deputises for Obi and their government doesn't live up to expectation, it will diminish the popularity he already has.
Their is only one clear path for Kwankwaso, join APC and wait out Tinubus second term. It is very possible for him to win the primary and be the APC candidate in 2031. If he does anything other than this, he should kiss his dream to be president good bye.
