<p>Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, former Governor of Kano State and national leader of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), has expressed his willingness to contest either as President or Vice-President in future elections, depending on agreements with like-minded political allies.</p>
<p>Speaking in Hausa to party members and supporters in Kano, Kwankwaso stressed that his priority is to align with trusted partners who share his political vision, rather than to pursue power for its own sake.</p>
<p>“What matters first are those who agree with me and whom I respect—whether I lead as number one or number two,” he stated.</p><div class="IEREpIBU" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>He explained that his movement is considering multiple political pathways to ensure transparency and avoid accusations of hidden negotiations.</p>

<p>“To prevent any false accusations or claims of collusion, we are preparing several options—option A, option B, and so on,” Kwankwaso noted.</p>

<p>The former governor revealed that his recent consultations have focused on grassroots mobilisation, particularly within Kano State, where he said lingering disputes from past elections are being resolved from the bottom up.</p>
<p>“Whether we are engaging at the grassroots, moving across Kano, or consolidating support in key areas, we will do what is necessary to succeed,” he affirmed.</p>
<p>Kwankwaso also appeared to take aim at political dealings that fail to deliver concrete benefits, especially for the youth, emphasising that vague promises are no longer acceptable.</p>
<p>“When people offer to bring us youth or supporters, we ask: how many, and in what form? What have they actually brought to the table?” he remarked, indicating a more cautious and deliberate approach to coalition-building.</p>
<p>He disclosed that high-profile political figures—whom he described as “people of status and dignity”—have held serious talks with his camp in recent times.</p>
<p>According to Kwankwaso, his political strength is rooted in the grassroots, and discussions are ongoing about potential alliances, whether within the NNPP or with other parties.</p>
<p>“We have a strong grassroots base, and we are hopeful of joining a political party—whether the NNPP or another—together with others,” he said.</p>
<p>Reflecting on the 2023 elections, he acknowledged that controversies emerged but insisted they are being addressed locally, particularly in Kano.</p>
<p>“Many things were said in 2023, but we are resolving these matters at the grassroots. In Kano, God willing, there will be no problem,” he assured.</p>
<p>Kwankwaso framed his political journey as one marked by resilience, dignity, and strategic patience.</p>
<p>“This struggle is based on strength, firm determination, and dignity,” he stated.</p>
<p>Notably, ahead of the 2023 presidential election, the NNPP and the Labour Party, led by Peter Obi, attempted to form an alliance. The talks ultimately broke down after both sides could not agree on whose candidate would run as president and who would be the running mate.</p>
