2027: Obi, Kwankwaso storm NDC office as defection talks intensify

Former Anambra State governor, Peter Obi, and former Kano State governor, Rabi’u Kwankwaso, have visited the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) office in Abuja.

They were seen with Senator Victor Umeh of Anambra Central. Reports say they may officially announce that they are joining the party.

This comes shortly after Peter Obi resigned from the African Democratic Congress (ADC), saying there are ongoing problems in the party.

Kwankwaso has not yet officially resigned from the ADC, but there are reports that he is working closely with Obi as they move toward a joint political plan ahead of the 2027 election.

Obi has already resigned from the African Democratic Congress (ADC), citing ongoing internal crises in the party. His move has fueled speculation about his next political direction ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Although Kwankwaso has not officially left the ADC, reports suggest he is closely aligned with Obi in what many see as a possible joint political strategy, as both figures continue consultations within the NDC.
