The spokesman for Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Ladipo Johnson, has disclosed that the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi, is unhappy over the leadership dispute currently affecting the OK Movement.
Johnson made the revelation during an interview on Arise Television, where he acknowledged the existence of tensions within the movement but maintained that the disagreement would not derail its political objectives ahead of the 2027 general election.
According to him, the crisis is a temporary distraction that should not be allowed to create divisions among supporters of the proposed Obi-Kwankwaso alliance.
“Yes, we have, may I call it a distraction at the moment. It is not such, in my own humble opinion, that would lead you to take unilateral actions that could possibly scuttle or bring bad blood within the support base of the person you purportedly want to become the president of the country,” Johnson said.
He cautioned members of the movement against taking actions capable of undermining efforts to build a formidable political platform, stressing that supporters should instead concentrate on expanding the group’s structure across the country.
