APC Governors Reject Alliance with Wike's Coalition
Governors elected on the All Progressives Congress (APC) platform have publicly distanced themselves from any coalition or alliance with individuals, specifically addressing the Rainbow Coalition movement led by Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and a national leader of the Peoples Democratic Party. This statement was made by Hope Uzodimma, the Chairman of the APC Governors Forum and Governor of Imo State, following a meeting in Abuja on a late Monday night.
The governors emphasized their commitment to the APC and its political structure, stating they have not entered into any formal agreements with Wike or any opposition party regarding the 2027 general elections. Wike has claimed that certain APC governors, including Uzodimma and Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, are behind his political challenges due to the rise of his coalition.
The APC governors resolved to support only official APC candidates and not endorse any alliances that could weaken the party or its candidates.
