The vice-presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Rabiu Kwankwaso, has expressed regret over his failure to form an alliance with the party’s flagbearer, Peter Obi, ahead of the 2023 general election.
Kwankwaso said a joint presidential ticket with Obi could have defeated the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the election.
The former Kano State Governor made the remarks on Saturday while addressing party supporters at the 360 Event Centre in Dutse, the Jigawa State capital.
“I did not truly understand Peter Obi until now. Had I understood him better in 2023, we would have collaborated and ousted the All Progressives Congress from the presidency,” he said, drawing cheers from the audience.
