According to a report by Daily Post on Saturday, May 02, 2026, Supporters of former presidential candidates Peter Obi of the Labour Party and Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party are currently gathered in Abuja for a political unity summit aimed at strengthening collaboration ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The meeting brings together key figures and movement coordinators aligned with both politicians, alongside other political actors working on coalition-building efforts across party lines. Among those present are Moses Paul, a former African Democratic Congress chairmanship candidate, and Adebayo Adefolaseye, the South-West coordinator of the OK Movement.
Organisers of the summit say the engagement is focused on promoting political alignment, strategic cooperation, and a shared agenda among supporters of the two prominent opposition figures as discussions intensify over possible alliances ahead of the next election cycle.
The gathering comes at a time of heightened political activity and speculation regarding the future alignment of both Obi and Kwankwaso. Reports within political circles suggest that there may be ongoing discussions around possible realignments, including speculation about potential movement to the Nigeria Democratic Congress, although no official confirmation has been made by either camp.
Participants at the Abuja summit are expected to deliberate on areas of common interest, including electoral strategy, youth engagement, and broader coalition frameworks aimed at strengthening opposition influence in the coming political cycle.
Political observers note that the increasing interaction between supporter blocs reflects early positioning ahead of 2027, as various political movements explore possible partnerships to enhance their electoral competitiveness.
