‘Kwankwaso knows 2027 is not feasible’ – Bashir Ahmad on agreement with Peter Obi

Former presidential aide, Bashir Ahmad, has reacted to the agreement Rabi’u Kwankwaso is said to have had with Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

In a post on his verified X handle on Wednesday, Ahmad said Kwankwaso knows very well that 2027 will not be feasible for them.

Recall that Kwankwaso in an interview said he had a written agreement with Peter Obi for a single term of four years if they win the 2027 general elections.

“I read that Senator Kwankwaso said the agreement is for Mr Peter Obi to be on the ballot in 2027 and, regardless of the outcome, he will not contest in 2031 but instead support Kwankwaso’s presidential ambition.

“I like how Kwankwaso entered this political marriage with a clear long-term political strategy in mind, knowing that 2027 will not be feasible for them,” he wrote.

DAILY POST reports that Kwankwaso is the running mate of Peter Obi in  next year’s general elections.

The duo joined the NDC in May after dumping the African Democratic Congress, ADC, citing internal divisions and court cases.
