The People’s Redemption Party (PRP) has invited former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Mr Peter Obi, and Dr Rabiu Kwankwaso, to unite under the party to safeguard Nigeria’s democracy.
The Lagos State Chairman, James Adeshina made the call in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday In reaction to the leadership crisis rocking the African Democratic Congress (ADC), adopted by some prominent opposition leaders ahead of 2027 general elections.
Adeshina, a former Lagos State Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC) Chairman, said the renewed ADC leadership crisis threatens opposition cohesion., adding that “Nigeria’s political landscape is once again witnessing turbulence—this time within the ADC.
“What should have been a strong alternative platform is now entangled in internal disputes, leadership struggles, and uncertainty.
“This development is not just unfortunate; it is a stark reminder of a deeper problem within opposition politics in Nigeria—fragmentation.
“At a time when the nation urgently needs a strong, united front to safeguard democracy, internal crises like the one in ADC only weaken the collective ability of opposition forces to provide credible alternatives.
“The consequences are far-reaching: it creates room for unchecked dominance and fuels the growing fear of Nigeria sliding toward a one-party state.”
