A political analyst, Deji Adeyanju, has claimed that the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is getting support from his counterpart in the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, Rabiu Kwankwaso ahead of the 2023 elections.
Adeyanju said Kwankwaso believes that if Tinubu wins in 2023, he would make him the next president after his tenure.
The Abuja-based activist pointed out that it will take another Southern and Northern presidential candidate 16 years to rule Nigeria if Tinubu wins in 2023.
In a series of tweets, Adeyanju: “If Tinubu becomes president, it will take another presidential aspirant from the South 16yrs to be president and same for a Northern candidate.
“This is one of the reasons Kwankwaso is now supporting Tinubu. He thinks Asiwaju will help him get power in 8yrs time.
“A very important lesson I learnt from this is that be less desperate about power. This is the same reason why Kwankwaso and Obi couldn’t work together when it’s obvious only one person can be president.”
