Obi, Kwankwaso and Makinde Unite in Kano Amid Eid Festivities, Fuel 2027 Alliance Talks
Former presidential candidate Peter Obi joined Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde and ex-Bayelsa Governor Seriake Dickson at Rabiu Kwankwaso’s residence in Kano during Eid-el-Fitr celebrations. Supporters flocked to the gathering, chanting “Obi/Kwankwaso” as the trio appeared. Although the leaders called it a Sallah visit, the public show of unity has ignited speculation about a possible alliance ahead of the 2027 elections. Obi emphasized that the visit was not political but spoke passionately about restoring Kano’s industrial strength. Combined with recent consultations and shifting party loyalties among opposition figures, many now wonder if a broader coalition is taking shape.
