Former governor of Kano state, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has said he is ready to work with any presidential candidate, that emerges in the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Kwankwaso said the party had already agreed to zone its 2027 presidential ticket to Southern Nigeria for a single four-year term.
The former Kano governor appeared on Arise TV PrimeTime programme and confirmed that the decision was reached after consultations with party leaders and stakeholders across the country.
“If the party decides that I will be anybody’s running mate from the South, I am ready”, he affirmed.
“Right from day one, we sat down together and we looked at the situation on the ground in the country and we decided to take a major decision, including zoning the presidency to the South for four years and after that, the Presidency will return to the North”, he added.
Kwankwaso recently aligned with the opposition coalition in the NDC alongside former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi.
