Veteran politician Rabiu Kwankwaso has revealed that he would consider defecting to the All Progressives Congress (APC) only if he is offered a presidential or vice-presidential ticket, outlining clear conditions for any potential switch in political allegiance. Kwankwaso stated that his decision to leave his current party hinges on the availability of a top ticket position that aligns with his national leadership ambitions.
In explaining his position, Kwankwaso emphasised that joining the APC would not be a mere party shift but a strategic move tied to his aspiration to play a central role in Nigeria’s political future. His comments reflect calculated positioning as politicians across parties assess their options ahead of upcoming electoral contests.
The declaration has sparked discussion in political circles, with analysts weighing how Kwankwaso’s conditions might influence party negotiations, alliances, and broader electoral strategies. Supporters and critics alike continue to watch developments closely as the 2027 election landscape takes shape.
