The Kwankwasiyya movement has dismissed claims suggesting that discussions are ongoing over a possible political alliance involving former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi and former Kano State governor Rabiu Kwankwaso ahead of the 2027 elections.
The reaction followed reports alleging that the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) had initiated conversations aimed at forming a coalition involving key opposition figures.
In a response to the claims, members of the Kwankwasiyya movement described the reports as inaccurate, insisting that no formal alliance talks were taking place at the moment.
The development comes amid increasing political realignments and speculation over possible coalitions ahead of the next general elections in Nigeria.
Observers say opposition parties and political blocs are already positioning themselves strategically as conversations around alliances continue to shape the political landscape.
Both Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso remain influential figures within Nigeria’s opposition space, with supporters closely watching developments that could affect the 2027 presidential race.
Political analysts believe coalition discussions are likely to intensify in the coming months as parties seek stronger platforms capable of challenging the ruling party.
Despite the denial, speculation around opposition alliances continues to generate public attention, particularly among voters looking ahead to the next election cycle.
The latest response from the Kwankwasiyya movement is expected to further clarify the group’s position as political activities gradually build toward 2027.
