Kwankwaso Lays Foundation For Obi, NDC 2027 Presidential Electioneering Campaign
The vice presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, in the 2027 general elections, Engr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has laid the foundation for the electioneering campaign of the NDC in the buildup to the general elections. The former Kano Governor made a broad reflection on the Nigerian socio-economic malaise, as the electioneering campaign for the 2027 presidential election officially commenced on Wednesday, August 19, 2026, according to INEC timetable.
Kwankwaso stated that Nigeria stands at a critical crossroads. He said the people are facing a difficult economic reality. The rising cost of food and essential goods has placed enormous pressure on families, he said.
"Millions of young Nigerians are searching for meaningful employment and opportunities, while businesses are struggling with high operating costs and an uncertain economic environment.
"At the same time, insecurity continues to threaten communities across the country. Too many families have lost loved ones, homes and livelihoods to terrorism, banditry, kidnapping and other forms of violence.
"Our farmers need security to return to their farms, our children need safe schools, and every Nigerian deserves to live without fear.
"Our education and healthcare systems require urgent investment. Our infrastructure must be improved, our institutions strengthened, and public resources managed with greater
transparency and accountability.
"These challenges are serious, but Nigeria is full of hope. We have the people, resources and potential to build a prosperous and secure nation. What we need is leadership with the competence, courage and commitment to put the interests of Nigerians first.
"This is why I have chosen to work with His Excellency, Peter Obi, on the Obi-Kwankwaso ticket," Kwankwaso declared.
