A political/social commentator says the association of Peter obi and former Kano governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso is only a ruse for the former to gain national expansion.
Reposted by Akinwumi @Big Marvis, the commentator inferred that Obi and his loyalists may eventually lose out, going by the ongoing political happenings in the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC).
He wrote: “All Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso loyalists got tickets to all the offices they wish to run for. Read my lips…all Mr. Peter Obi loyalists were denied tickets to the various offices they wished to run for. Again, read my lips.”
He noted that the national leader of NDC, Henry Seriake Dickson, isn’t Julius Abure, and that he’s a grounded politician like Kwankwaso, who is playing games with Obi.

“He isn’t a comrade. He is a full time politician with future political ambition. You will notice Dickson allowed Kwankwaso to field all his loyalists in Kano, Taraba, Nasarawa, and other Northern states while he has been dealing with Obi’s followers down in the South and FCT. Aisha Yesufu is realizing Peter Obi is too weak as a leader to protect the interests of his own people. She had to speak for herself.”
“Dickson knows Obi isn’t going anywhere in 2027. However, he wants to use Obi to corner necessary loyalists in the South East and South South while building a national name for himself. I assume Dickson and Kwankwaso are having meetings behind Obi, scheming for 2031 already, while fooling the desperate Agulu man who joined three parties in three months.

He added: “After the 2027 election, Kwakwanso and Dickson will scheme Obi out of national play and form a joint ticket. Be there.”
