“Kwankwaso believes in education, just like I do.” — Peter Obi
One of the biggest problems Nigeria faces today is the decline of quality education. We need an education system that not only produces intelligent people but also builds character, values, and responsible citizens.
A few months ago, we @OK2027movement, alongside well meaning Nigerians started talking about this merger again. Not just because of the numbers needed to win an election, but because of what it could mean for governance after the election.
We looked closely at the records, achievements, and values of Peter Obi and Engr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso. We came to one conclusion: if Nigeria is to move forward in a meaningful way, these two leaders must work together.
That is why it comes as no surprise to see Kwankwaso, like Peter Obi, championing education and investing in people. The beneficiaries of the Kwankwasiyya Scholarship Scheme come from different tribes, religions, and parts of the country. That is the kind of leadership Nigeria needs.
The OK ticket is about building a country where people are given opportunities based on merit, not tribe; competence, not religion; and character, not connections.
We are happy that this ticket is now a reality and we look forward to campaigning, voting and defending our votes, so we can have a Nigeria where the son of nobody can become somebody without knowing anybody.

A lingering scarcity of Jet A-1 (aviation fuel) and the consistent price hikes have forced Nigerian domestic airlines into a major operational shift, grounding large, fuel-heavy jets to smaller, fuel-efficient regional aircraft.
The economic realities of the sector have deteriorated over the last five years. In Nigeria, the price of aviation fuel skyrocketed nearly four times from under N900 per litre at the end of 2023 to a sharp rise between N2,200 and N3,300 per litre in 2026.

PRESS STATEMENT
Our attention has been drawn to a message currently circulating on social media falsely claiming that we are planning a protest over the rising insecurity in the country.
We do not support any action that could lead to the breakdown of public order or the destruction of lives and property. As responsible leaders, we remain committed to peaceful and constructive approaches in addressing national challenges.
As committed democrats, we firmly believe that the ballot box remains the most legitimate and effective way to express grievances and seek change. Our party, the NDC, is confident of securing a resounding victory in the upcoming elections through peaceful democratic means.
The general public is therefore advised to disregard the false message and ignore those peddling such disinformation.
Signed,
Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, PhD, FNSE
Former Governor, Kano State
NDC Vice Presidential Candidate
