2027 Coalition: We Haven’t Decided Yet – PDP

By Emmanuel Kwada

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has firmly dismissed reports suggesting it directed members to join a coalition group, labeling such claims as misrepresentations circulating on social media.

In a press statement issued today, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, the PDP’s National Publicity Secretary, clarified that the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) has not taken any official stance on forming a coalition.

The PDP emphasized its current focus on fostering unity, stabilizing its structures, and preparing for a pivotal National Convention aimed at repositioning the party for a robust return to power in the 2027 general elections.

“The PDP is conscientiously working towards a successful National Convention to revamp and strengthen our capacity as the leading opposition party,” Ologunagba stated.

While distancing itself from coalition rumors, the PDP reiterated its openness to collaborating with “well-meaning, like-minded citizens” to challenge the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led administration, which it described as “rudderless and insensitive.”

The party underscored its strong connection with Nigerians and expressed gratitude for their continued loyalty and support.

Efforts are underway to reactivate its “winning ways,” leveraging its nationwide presence to reclaim political dominance

As the PDP gears up for 2027, it assured supporters that efforts are underway to reactivate its “winning ways,” leveraging its nationwide presence to reclaim political dominance. The statement comes amid heightened political activity, with the opposition aiming to capitalize on public discontent with the current administration.

The PDP’s clarification and strategic focus signal a determined push to unify its ranks and prepare for a critical electoral showdown, setting the stage for an intense political season ahead.
