Kwankwaso Regrets Missed Opportunity with Peter Obi in 2023 Elections

Rabiu Kwankwaso, vice-presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), has expressed regret over not forming an alliance with Peter Obi in the 2023 general election.

Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) vice-presidential candidate, Rabiu Kwankwaso, has expressed regret over his failure to form an alliance with party flagbearer Peter Obi ahead of the 2023 general election, according to Premium Times Nigeria. Kwankwaso made the remarks on Saturday in Dutse, the Jigawa State capital, while addressing party supporters at the 360 Event Centre. If he had understood Obi better, Kwankwaso believes a joint presidential ticket with Obi could have defeated the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the election. According to Daily Post Nigeria, Kwankwaso’s remarks come after the APC won the election. This is a significant statement for Nigerian politics, as it shows a possible alliance between two major opposition parties in the 2023 election.
