Tinubu’s Offer to Kwankwaso: An Opportunity or Insult?
The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) chieftain, Ladipo Johnson, has weighed in on the speculation surrounding President Bola Tinubu’s potential offer to Rabiu Kwankwaso, the NNPP’s 2023 presidential candidate, to be his running mate in the 2027 elections. According to Johnson, such an offer would not be an insult, and whether Kwankwaso accepts or not is a different matter altogether.
Johnson revealed that some members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have reached out to him about the possibility of an alliance between Kwankwaso and Tinubu in 2027. This development has sparked interest and debate about the potential implications of such a partnership.
As a long-time associate of Kwankwaso, Johnson emphasized that the NNPP is open to discussions with anyone who shares their vision for moving forward. The party’s stance on potential alliances and collaborations will likely play a significant role in shaping the country’s political landscape.
The speculation surrounding Tinubu’s potential offer to Kwankwaso highlights the complex and ever-changing nature of Nigerian politics. As the 2027 elections approach, it will be fascinating to see how these developments unfold and what impact they will have on the country’s political future.
