Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, former Kano State governor and a key leader of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), has called for unity within the party following a meeting with its candidates in Nasarawa State.
The meeting is part of early political activities building up to the 2027 general elections, as parties begin to position themselves and strengthen internal structures ahead of the polls.
Kwankwaso’s Message to Party Members
During the engagement, Kwankwaso reportedly stressed the need for unity, discipline, and focus among party members.
He urged the candidates to avoid internal disagreements that could weaken their chances in the coming elections.
Instead, he encouraged them to work together and maintain strong communication with supporters at the grassroots level.
According to him, the strength of any political movement depends largely on how united its members are, especially as elections approach.
Strengthening the NDC in Nasarawa
The meeting also focused on how to strengthen the party’s structure in Nasarawa State.
Party stakeholders discussed ways to reduce internal disputes by promoting consensus in decision-making, especially during candidate selection. This approach, according to party leaders, is aimed at building stability and preventing divisions that could affect performance in 2027.
Early Positioning for 2027 Elections
Although the 2027 elections are still some time away, political activities have already started gaining momentum across different parties.
Kwankwaso’s engagement with Nasarawa candidates is seen as part of broader efforts to align the party early, build strong local networks, and ensure candidates are well-prepared for future campaigns.
Conclusion
As the 2027 elections draw closer, the NDC appears to be focusing on unity and internal organisation.
Kwankwaso’s message to the Nasarawa candidates reflects a clear priority to keep the party united, disciplined, and strategically prepared for the political challenges ahead.
