Dr Sokonte Davies Joins Wike's Rainbow Coalition in Rivers
Dr Sokonte Davies, a governorship aspirant from the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Rivers State, has officially joined the Rainbow Coalition, a multi-party political group led by Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory. This announcement was made by Wike’s media aide, Lere Olayinka, through a social media post that included photographs of Wike and Davies.
Dr Davies, a former member of the House of Representatives, had been a strong supporter of the ADC presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and his running mate, Rotimi Amaechi. His decision to join the Rainbow Coalition was revealed following a visit to Wike at his residence in Port Harcourt on Wednesday morning.
Wike has been in Rivers State for about a week, engaging with various political leaders to garner support for President Bola Tinubu in anticipation of the 2027 presidential election. This development reflects ongoing political realignments among parties in the state as the general elections approach.
