The PDP Governors’ Forum, meeting in Oyo State, has declared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will not entertain any coalition talks ahead of the 2027 general election. The announcement, made after a closed-door session hosted by Governor Seyi Makinde, underscores the party’s resolve to strengthen its internal structures and contest independently.
Chairman of the Forum, Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State, emphasized that the PDP remains focused on rebuilding trust with Nigerians through grassroots mobilization and policy-driven campaigns.
“We are not looking for shortcuts. Our party is strong enough to stand alone and deliver for the people,” Mohammed stated.
