The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has announced its support for Nyesom Wike’s “Rainbow Coalition” as a vehicle to secure the re‑election of President Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate.
In a statement, the PDP said the coalition is needed because several APC governors are opposing Tinubu’s bid, a stance the party attributes to their fear of losing at the polls.
The PDP further alleged that some of those governors have underperformed while in office, suggesting that their lack of achievement is driving their resistance to the incumbent’s campaign.
The PDP attributed the governors' opposition to fear of defeat at the polls, alleging that some of them had underperformed in office.
This development underscores the tense political climate in Nigeria ahead of the 2027 elections, as parties and regional alliances jockey for influence.
