Obi-Kwankwaso Ticket Has 70% Chance in 2027, Babachir Lawal Claims

Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation Babachir Lawal says a joint Peter Obi–Rabiu Kwankwaso presidential ticket could have a stronger chance in the 2027 election than separate bids. Speaking in a recent interview, Lawal estimated that an Obi-Kwankwaso ticket would have about a 70 per cent chance of winning. He put President Bola Tinubu’s chances at 50 per cent and said former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar would not win. Lawal argued that Obi and Kwankwaso would be more formidable as a pair, while separate campaigns could weaken their prospects. His comments follow his reported disagreement with Atiku and resignation from the African Democratic Congress.
