G100 Urges Opposition Unity Ahead of Critical Summit

The G100, a coalition of political leaders, called on opposition parties in Nigeria, including the ADC and NDC, to embrace unity ahead of a summit scheduled at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja. In a statement signed by Salihu Moh.

Lukman, the group emphasized that this summit is crucial for Nigeria’s democracy, as millions of citizens expect the opposition to not only critique the government but also to present a viable alternative. The G100 acknowledged the diverse histories and ambitions of the participating parties but argued that these differences should not hinder collaboration on national issues.

They stated that divisions among opposition parties can dilute their collective influence, urging leaders to approach the summit with open minds and a focus on the greater goal of strengthening democracy. The group clarified that the summit should not be seen as a competition among parties but as a starting point for developing mechanisms for dialogue and cooperation, ultimately aiming to serve the aspirations of Nigerians beyond individual political interests.
