Political pressure group for former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi, and ex-Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, have unveiled a new political pressure group, the Obi–Kwankwaso Movement, as momentum gather ahead of the presidential primaries of the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
The group, which announced its formation in Abuja on Monday, said it has already built structures across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, with state and zonal coordinators appointed to drive nationwide mobilisation.
In a statement issued in the capital, the National Publicity Secretary of the movement, Justin Ijeh, described the initiative as a broad coalition of political forces. He said it draws membership from the Obidient Movement, Kwankwasiyya, the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), and the ADC.
The emergence of the Obi–Kwankwaso Movement signals renewed efforts to consolidate grassroots support and build a formidable bloc capable of influencing the outcome of upcoming primaries.
Speaking further, Ijeh said the platform represents a fusion of key political tendencies, uniting supporters from Kwankwasiyya, Obidients, NNPP, and ADC under a single umbrella to push a shared political agenda ahead of the 2027 race.
