A chieftain of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Ladipo Johnson, has stated that it is not insulting for President Bola Tinubu to offer the vice Presidency spot in the 2027 election to former Kano Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso.
Speaking during an appearance on Channels Television on Monday, Johnson explained that after the 2023 election, Kwankwaso has always been open to an alliance with anyone willing to move forward.
According to him, people from the APC have contacted him about the possibility of an alliance between Kwankwaso and the president.
“It’s not insulting to offer him (the vice president slot); whether he accepts or not is a different thing,” he said.
Johnson said, “I’ve been with Senator Kwankwaso since 2013, 2014 and it’s always about the beliefs of the moment and whether those you are going to get involved with would allow you or make sure that such things happen.
“Yes, there are rumours at the moment but it is a possibility because after the 2023 elections, we said we were open to discussions with anyone who wants to move forward.
“People from the APC have called me to say: ‘Oh, if he is offered, please encourage him to accept’ but when it comes to the party, it is a team game.”
