Kwankwaso Stirs Controversy After New Caims On Peter Obi (Video)

Published

on

Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, former Governor of Kano State and leader of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), has ignited a heated debate on social media after declaring himself “bigger” than Peter Obi politically.

Kwankwaso made the bold assertion in a viral video while speaking in Hausa, where he also stated that he performed better than Obi during his tenure as governor of Kano.

In the video, Kwankwaso further emphasized that he holds a PhD and sees himself as Peter Obi’s “elder brother” in the political arena. However, he noted that he would not have an issue with deputizing Obi, provided certain conditions were met.

Watch the video below;

The remarks have not sat well with many of Obi’s supporters, who took to the comment sections across social media platforms to express their displeasure. While some acknowledged Kwankwaso’s academic achievements, they argued that leadership goes beyond educational qualifications. Many pointed out that Obi’s impact extends beyond his home state of Anambra, as evidenced by his victories in major cities like Abuja and Lagos during the 2023 presidential election, while Kwankwaso’s influence largely remained in Kano.

Supporters of Obi contended that the former Anambra governor’s leadership style, humility, and national appeal far surpass that of Kwankwaso, who, they claim, lacks similar recognition across the country.

Read some netizens’ reactions to Kwankwaso ‘seniority’ claims below;

@diablochase: Being a PhD holder and experienced governor doesn’t make him ‘bigger’ than @PeterObi. Leadership is mostly about humility, not ego.
I will advise he drop his conditions and support the people, not his own interests 🥸

@Nnekabusybody: Yet you’re only relevant in Kano state.

Yet all measurable state indices for Kano state can never near Anambra state for anything.

No single shame. Agbaya

That’s why nations who prosper do not give merit/reward based on age or who started something first.

@abdulahiajao1: You are correct about your educational background, but the only issue I have with you is that you constantly use your political party as a negotiation tool, which will eventually result in a bad leader.

@drlszzy: OBI PETER has better c@reer than you ..

Obi Peter is the only governor that left Billions of naira in Anambra state government house before living.

@zoeadeola: But your relevance is only in Kano, He is more favoured than you and his relevance cut across the country, someone that will deputize Peter Obi must be someone that can capture many Northern state and I doubt if kwankwaso can do that.

@Nigerialens: You are bigger than him actually in all ramifications but time and season favoured him last year. You would have been vice president by now assuming you drooped your ego.

@precious: You are bigger yes but you won only kano state .
Peter obi won Lagos state and Abj.
Who are you then?
