JUST IN!!! Peter Obi Bigger Than Kwankwaso Politically - Ex Buhari Aide

Bashir Ahmad, a former aide to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, says Peter Obi is “politically” bigger than Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Igbere TV reports.

He was reacting to Kwankwaso’s recent statement, where he claimed to be politically bigger than Peter Obi.

Kwankwaso, national leader of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), during an interview in Kano, had argued that his political stature surpassed that of Peter Obi, Presidential Candidate of Labour Party (LP) in last year’s election.

Weighing in, Ahmad, in a post on X, said while he had always admired and respected Kwankwaso as a progressive political figure, he cannot align with his assertion.

He wrote: “Even though I have never been a Kwankwasiyya loyalist, but I have always admired and respected Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso and see him as one of the progressive political figures we have in this country.

“However, I do not agree with his recent statement during his interview in Kano, where he claimed to be politically bigger than Peter Obi. Looking at the results from the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi garnered 6,101,533 votes and led in 11 states, demonstrating significant national support. In contrast, Senator Kwankwaso secured 1,496,687 votes and led in just one state, Kano.

These numbers clearly suggest that, at least in the context of the 2023 election, Peter Obi has significantly more political influence across the country.
