BREAKING: For VP, Atiku Abubakar And Others Dump PDP, Adopt Coalition To Unseat Tinubu
Ahead of 2027 Presidential election, Key leaders in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, former Jigawa State Governor Sule Lamido, ex-Senate President David Mark, and other party bigwigs, are reportedly on their way out of the party.
The Genius Media Nigeria reports that this was disclosed in a communiqué issued shortly after a meeting of Concerned Leaders of the PDP held in Abuja on Tuesday.
DAILY POST earlier reported that the top opposition figures had held a closed-door meeting to deliberate on the lingering crisis affecting the main opposition party and the way forward.
Former Governors Aminu Tambuwal (Sokoto), Babangida Aliyu (Niger), Liyel Imoke (Cross River), and Sam Egwu (Ebonyi), along with other senior figures, were also present at the meeting.
The concerned leaders lamented that the All Progressives Congress, APC, government, which “came into being on the false and evil propaganda, to save Nigeria from PDP is now a disaster to our nation and therefore must be voted out of power.”
According to them, “all indices of development that support the comfort and quality of lives of the citizens have collapsed, and life is now hell in Nigeria.”
The opposition leaders expressed regret that PDP, “which is organic with the discipline, capacity, and history to lead and save Nigeria, is now a shadow of its old self,” stressing that “the heatwave unleashed by the APC Federal Government through threats, blackmail and patronage has forced elected officers in government to abandon the PDP.”
They called on all well-meaning PDP “members and other patriotic Nigerians to join the coalition.”
