Former presidential candidates, Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso, have held a closed-door meeting with leaders of the NDC, sparking fresh political speculation ahead of the 2027 general elections, Peak Newspaper reports.
Details of the meeting remain undisclosed, but sources familiar with the development say discussions may be centered on possible political collaboration and coalition-building as opposition figures begin early strategizing.
The meeting has fueled talks of a potential alliance involving key political blocs seeking to challenge the ruling party in 2027. Both Obi and Kwankwaso were prominent contenders in the 2023 presidential election and retain significant grassroots support across different regions of the country.
Neither camp has issued an official statement on the outcome of the engagement as of press time. Similarly, leaders of the NDC have yet to publicly comment on the purpose or resolutions of the meeting.
Political analysts say such consultations, if sustained, could reshape Nigeria’s opposition landscape ahead of the next electoral cycle.
More details are expected to emerge in the coming days.
