Former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi and his Kano State counterpart Rabiu Kwankwaso have officially joined the Nigeria Democratic Congress, with both figures seen being issued membership cards in a viral video.
This information surfaced in a Sunday footage of the ceremony documenting the registration process.
The video shows Kwankwaso being presented with his card first, followed by Obi, marking what seems to be their official induction into the party.
This transition occurs during a period of shifting political alliances among opposition members leading up to the 2027 general elections.

Only hours before, the two politicians engaged in a private discussion with NDC leaders at the Abuja home of Seriake Dickson, the party’s National Leader and former Governor of Bayelsa State.
The gathering at the Guzape residence is thought to be an effort to unite opposition groups and establish a strong coalition before the upcoming elections.
Obi and Kwankwaso reached the venue around 5:18 p.m., where they were met by a large group of supporters from the Obi-Kwankwaso Movement.
The crowd chanted “O-K is okay” as the leaders were led into the building.
Kwankwaso was dressed in a white babanriga along with his trademark red-and-white Kwankwasiyya cap, while Obi opted for an all-black kaftan and a matching cap.
This move aligns with recent comments from Buba Galadima, the Secretary of the Board of Trustees of the New Nigeria People’s Party, who had previously mentioned at a stakeholders’ meeting that two major political figures were set to reveal a new political platform.
