2027: PDP, NNPP, Five Other Parties Form Coalition
A group of seven opposition political parties on Wednesday (6th December 2023) formed a new coalition in a bid to strengthen democracy in the country.
The movement tagged “the Coalition of Concerned Political Parties” was formed in Abuja at a meeting attended by leaders of the political parties at the National Secretariat of the Social Democratic Party.
The coalition comprised the Peoples Democratic Party, African Democratic Congress, Social Democratic Party, Peoples Allied Movement, New Nigeria Peoples Party, Young Progressives Party, and Zenith Labour Party.
The PUNCH reports that the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, while hosting a delegation of the Inter-party Advisory Council in November, expressed fears of the country falling into a one-state party, urging the opposition to see the need for unity.
The coalition while expressing worry about the level of instability the country is going through, urged the judicial system to save Nigeria’s democracy and rid itself of political and executive interference.
