Obi’s sole hope at the presidency is to merge with NNPP.– Kwankwaso

 

Rabiu Kwankwaso, the presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, declared late on Friday that the only way for Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, to have any chance of winning the 2023 election was to join the NNPP. NewsReport gayhered.

Kwankwaso said this when he appeared on Channels TV’s ‘The 2023 Verdict’ Friday evening.

Asked about Obi’s chances considering that the LP presidential candidate led in most of the polls conducted by various bodies ahead of the general election, the former governor of Kano State said Obi’s chances only depended on his merger with him (Kwankwaso).

He said, “You see, I can tell you, and I’ve said it here on this chair when we were about to come together, and I said it that the only opportunity they (Labour Party) had was for us to come together.”

Reacting to the polls, Kwankwaso wondered how “the first one they released” would “give” him six per cent in the North-West, saying “…even a mad man knows that I’m over and above six per cent or even 60 per cent” in the region.

“They have done that in 1999. Nobody was giving me a chance in Kano. Within few months, the party came, I went in the primaries in the PDP and cleared it 100 per cent, so also the general election,” he said, stressing that he would repeat the same feat in the 2023 general election, adding, “that’s what is on the ground now.”
