BREAKING: Obi, Kwankwaso storm NDC secretariat in Abuja amid cheers
Former Anambra State governor, Peter Obi, and his Kano State counterpart, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, on Sunday arrived at the national secretariat of the Nigeria Democratic Congress in Abuja, marking a significant moment in the ongoing opposition realignment ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The two political heavyweights, who were presidential candidates of the Labour Party and the New Nigeria Peoples Party respectively in the 2023 elections, were received by enthusiastic supporters who gathered at the party’s headquarters.
Their arrival follows recent developments indicating their movement from the African Democratic Congress to the NDC, a shift widely seen as part of broader efforts to consolidate opposition forces.
Sources within the party say the duo are expected to hold a high-level consultative meeting with the NDC leadership, as discussions continue over possible alliances and strategic positioning ahead of the next electoral cycle.
The development adds momentum to ongoing coalition talks, with political observers closely watching how the emerging alignment could reshape Nigeria’s opposition landscape in the lead-up to 2027.
