Obidients Turn to Tambuwal After Kwankwaso Rejects VP Offer

Politics watchers say cracks have appeared in opposition talks after Rabiu Kwankwaso reportedly rejected a vice-presidential offer as “insulting.” His decision has forced supporters of Peter Obi to search for a new northern running mate. Insiders now point to former Sokoto State governor Aminu Tambuwal as a strong contender capable of restoring regional balance. Several other names, including Isa Pantami and Nasir El-Rufai, were also considered earlier. The development highlights intense behind-the-scenes negotiations as the opposition shapes its ticket for the 2027 presidential race.

They'll likely rally behind another northern figure to maintain balance and unity on the ticket.

Kwankwaso's rejection wasn't entirely unexpected, but calling the offer insulting might be a stretch.

The Opposition should hold town halls in key northern states before finalizing any VP choice to gauge grassroots support.
