Kwankwaso Will Not Accept To Be Peter Obi’s Running Mate – Galadima
A prominent member of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Buba Galadima, has refuted the claims that the party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, would not mind to serve as a running mate to the former Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
Naija News reports that Galadima, who is a political associate of Kwankwaso, provided this clarification in response to reports stemming from a recent interview with the former NNPP presidential candidate.
Galadima expressed disappointment that certain media outlets misinterpreted Kwankwaso’s stance regarding the potential of becoming Obi’s running mate, noting that Kwankwaso has neither considered nor will consider this option for the 2027 presidential election.
He emphasized that the NNPP presidential candidate is fully prepared to assume the presidency in 2027, asserting that Kwankwaso possesses both the political acumen and intellectual capability necessary to address Nigeria’s challenges if elected.
Galadima highlighted that during the interview, Kwankwaso outlined his political and intellectual credentials, which he believes provide him with a significant advantage over politicians such as Obi.
He further suggested that Peter Obi should contemplate joining the Kwankwasiyya Movement to aid in liberating Nigeria from the burdens of ineffective leadership.
“The NNPP presidential flagbearer is far ahead of the former Anambra state Governor in everything. So, saying that Kwankwaso will serve as Obi’s running mate in next three years is like relegating him to the background as such speculation does not hold water.
“To those that have listened and clearly understood the interview, what Senator Kwankwaso said was like humiliating Peter Obi not the opposite,” Galadima told PM News.
