The vice-presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Rabiu Kwankwaso, has confirmed that he and Peter Obi have a written agreement that Obi will serve only one four-year term if elected president in 2027. He recently had his say during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, and Nigerians have been reacting.
Responding to questions about Obi’s repeated promise to spend only one term in office, Kwankwaso stated that he has no reason to doubt Peter’s commitment to the pledge.
Rabiu added that their arrangement was not based on mere verbal assurances but has also been formally documented.
His words, “I personally believe him, and I don’t think, based on what I now know about him, he will renege. I don’t think he will change his mind when the time comes.
We are all gentlemen, even though we have accepted to even put it on paper. We have done one (agreement) for the party, and we have done another one for us.
The agreement is what you said—that after four years we will come together, team together as a group, as party, friends, brothers, and involve everybody to work together so that after his term, or our term of four years, 2027 to 2031, then it comes back to the North, and that’s the general agreement.”
