The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has said that the former Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, has boxed himself into one of the tightest corners in his political career over what he described as his refusal or indecision to accept an earlier political olive branch from the All Progressives Congress.
In a statement, yesterday, Keyamo noted that he had always admired Engr. Mohammed Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso from a distance, but argued that recent political developments had left the former governor facing a narrowing set of choices ahead of the 2027 general election.
According to him, Kwankwaso’s presidential ambition is at the centre of his current dilemma. He further argued that the former governor’s calculations rule out support for a northern presidential candidate in 2027.
Keyamo said that based on prevailing political realities, 2031 appears to be Kwankwaso’s most realistic presidential window, but warned that decisions taken in 2027 would be decisive. He narrowed Kwankwaso’s realistic alliance options to three political parties, noting that each comes with significant limitations.
