A chieftain of the New Nigerian Peoples Party (NNPP), Buba Galadima, has claimed that those clamouring for Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso to be the running mate of Peter Obi are not politicians.
Mr. Kwankwaso, a former governor of Kano State, is the presidential candidate of the NNPP, while Mr. Obi, a former governor of Anambra State, is the presidential candidate of Labour party.
Galadima made the claim on Monday while featuring on Arise Television’s Morning Show.
According to him, the Kwankwasian movement has been in force for the past 32 years, while that of Peter Obi started just two months ago, stressing that there is no way the NNPP candidate can deputize Obi.

He said, “Those who said Chief Peter Obi could not be Kwankwaso’s running mate are not politicians.
“They just started a movement two months ago, while the Kwankwasian movement has been on ground for 32 years and the primary reason for the movement is for Kwankwaso to become President.
“No Nigerian has ever performed well while in office like Alhaji Kwankwaso. I understand that Peter Obi was the governor of Anambra State and he did his best but not like Kwankwaso.”
He argued that Kwankwaso has more educational qualifications than any other presidential candidate of any political party.
