PDP Urged to Prepare for Alliances Ahead of 2027 Elections Amid Leadership Crises

Former Jigawa State Governor Lamido has called on the People's Democratic Party (PDP) to be ready to form alliances with other political parties in preparation for the 2027 elections. He highlighted the need for unity within the party to address leadership crises.

Lamido mentioned efforts involving key figures like Olusegun Obasanjo and Bukola Saraki to explore solutions to the party's internal challenges. The PDP is facing factional struggles, with rival factions vying for control despite the party's national headquarters being under lockdown.

Governor Bala Muham, Seyi Makinde, Ahmadu Fintiri, Nyesom Wike, and others are involved in reconciliation efforts. Lamido clarified that the PDP is not considering a merger with other parties but strategic alliances to reshape Nigeria's political landscape.
