By Ebor Cletus Ralph Jr.
New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP)’s presidential candidate, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, has confirmed that, he is in talks with his Labour Party Counterpart and former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi.
Kwankwaso made the remarks in an interview with BBC Hausa service.
He said: “We are really talking to Peter Obi, or at least saying that the committee is working to look into the matter (and cooperate with him), and friends and family are coming to talk to us about it.”
He pointed out that, their collaboration was especially important as the All Progressives (APC) and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had not fielded an Igbo vice-presidential candidate.
Recall that on Friday, Obi named former presidential spokesman, Doyin Okupe, as his running mate.
