2027: NNPP open to alliance with Tinubu, Jonathan, Obi – Kwankwaso

The 2023 presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, Rabi’u Kwankwaso, has declared that the party is willing to form an alliance with any political party or individual that shares its vision for a prosperous Nigeria and commitment to the welfare of the masses.

Kwankwaso made this known in an interview with BBC Hausa.

He stressed that any merger or alliance must be anchored on mutual respect, clear benefits, and shared ideals, particularly the upliftment of the common man.

“We’re ready for anyone, whether it is the APC, PDP, ADC, Jonathan, or Peter Obi. If we are satisfied with their competence and integrity, we will join forces to achieve success.

“But whoever we align with must be committed to improving the lives of Nigerians. If they fail to meet our expectations, we will not continue with them,” he said.

Kwankwaso reiterated that the NNPP, which fielded candidates across all states in the 2023 elections, had become a national force capable of influencing the political direction of the country.

He further said that he had hinted at the possibility of NNPP working with the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, stressing that such a move must come with tangible value for the NNPP structures and candidates.

The former lawmaker also lambasted Nigeria’s political elite, accusing them of neglecting the suffering of ordinary citizens while living lavishly in Abuja.
