A member of the All Progressives Congress, APC, National Caucus, Sam Nkire, has called for reconciliation between President Bola Tinubu and the leader of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, Rabiu Kwankwaso.
Nkire also urged Tinubu to consider outreach that could lead to Kwankwaso rejoining the ruling party ahead of the 2027 elections.
The party stalwart stated that bringing the parties together could strengthen Tinubu’s electoral prospects and called for constructive dialogue between the APC and the NNPP.
He described political collaboration as a possible factor in shaping the 2027 contest.
The appeal comes amid ongoing speculation about political realignments ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Kwankwaso remains an influential figure in northern politics.
There are speculations that the former Kano State governor will return to the APC before the 2027 election.
But Kwankwaso’s supporters insist he will contest, and win, the 2027 presidential election.
