Peter Obi: Kwankwaso reveals why Labour Party can’t win 2023 poll, mentions another potential running mate
Meanwhile, Kwankwaso on Sunday, July 3, told journalists that the Labour Party (LP) did not have what it took to emerge victorious in the 2023 elections.
Kwankwaso gives reasons
Giving his reason for this position, Kwankwaso noted that most of the persons throwing their weight behind Obi, are from the southeast, which is just one geopolitical zone in the country.
The former Kano governor stated that to win a presidential election, a given candidate needs the support and votes of persons from most parts of Nigeria, a fact which he said the constitution is very intentional about.
He said:
“In PDP, they (South East) are completely out; so also in the APC. The only opportunity now is the NNPP. We are aware that on the social media, the young men and women of the south East extraction are working towards getting the presidency, but the facts on the ground is that even if the entire zone or any zone in this country decides to vote for a particular person, that person, going by the provision of our constitution can not be president. I think the Constitution is deliberate to ensure that everybody in the country is involved..."
