Yunusa Tanko expressed strong confidence in the electoral strength of an Obi-Kwankwaso alliance ahead of the next general election.
Obidient Movement coordinator was responding to comments by media executive Dele Momodu, who had previously suggested that a presidential ticket pairing Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi could form a formidable combination under the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
In his remarks, Yunusa Tanko questioned the viability of alternative ticket arrangements, arguing that political strategy and zoning considerations would play a critical role in determining electoral outcomes.
“If the ADC doesn’t zone the presidency to the South, the party will lose the election,” Tanko said, adding, “With an Obi-Kwankwaso ticket, the election will be over by 12 pm.”
Obi-Kwankwaso 2027 election projection has further intensified political discussions around possible alliances ahead of the 2027 polls, with various blocs already positioning themselves for what is expected to be a highly competitive race.
