A possible alliance between Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso and the All Progressives Congress (APC) is reportedly taking shape, as evidenced by recent pictures of Senator Kwankwaso shaking hands with APC stalwart Chief Bisi Akande. This meeting has fueled speculation about the authenticity of the rumoured alliance, with rumors that Senator Kwankwaso is poised to play a significant role in the alliance process.
This speculation arises in the wake of a faction of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) confirming its expulsion of Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, prompting fresh talk of his potential defection to the APC.
The expelled NNPP faction called on the media to respect the party’s constitution by acknowledging only legitimate party officers as per the constitution, confirming the ousting of figures such as Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso and the entire former national working committee of the NNPP.
Furthermore, the Supreme Court verdict favoring the NNPP hinted at a possible agreement between Senator Kwankwaso and the APC, stirring increased confirmation of a potential alliance between the two parties.
Despite Senator Kwankwaso denying any arrangement with the APC in relation to the Kano verdict, a recent photo of him shaking hands with APC stalwart Bisi Akande has reignited speculation of a possible crossover or alliance between the APC and the NNPP.
With this development, the future of Abdullahi Ganduje, the national chairman of the APC, is under scrutiny, given his status as a formidable force in the party.
In a separate report, Senator Kwankwaso asserted his political prowess, claiming that he is a political strategist who cannot be outsmarted, and recounting alleged plots to frame him for orchestrated violence during the Kano governorship dispute.
In conclusion, the potential alliance between Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso and the APC continues to generate speculation and interest in the political landscape, as the senator’s next move remains a topic of public discussion and scrutiny.
