Dumo Lulu-Briggs Dismisses Wike's Coalition as Minor Threat

Dumo Lulu-Briggs, the governorship candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), expressed that the Rainbow Coalition, led by Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Nyesom Wike, does not pose a significant threat to his political movement in Rivers State. Speaking on Monday at the unveiling of his manifesto and campaign roadmap titled “Reset Rivers State” in Buguma City, Asari-Toru Local Government Area, Lulu-Briggs asserted that the coalition has "lost its colour" and would not influence the outcome of the 2027 elections.

He emphasized that the coalition represents less than 7% of the state's population and urged his supporters to have confidence in their ability to achieve positive results. Lulu-Briggs stated, “I am not bothered about any form of coalition,” reinforcing his belief that the coalition is something they can overcome.
