G100 Coalition Meets Cardinal Onaiyekan to Unite Opposition

On October 29, 2026, leaders of opposition political parties under the G100 Coalition met with Cardinal John Onaiyekan at his residence to discuss efforts to unite opposition parties ahead of the 2027 general elections. The coalition, represented by national chairmen and secretaries of various political parties, briefed Cardinal Onaiyekan on their progress in establishing a united front and presenting an alternative leadership platform to Nigerians.

They announced the completion of three major policy documents: the National Covenant for Democratic Renewal, the Framework for Opposition Unity, and the National Reform Programme. These documents are intended to guide the coalition's activities and outline the priorities of a potential government formed through their cooperation.

The coalition plans to formally adopt these documents at its Second Summit on November 9, 2026. Cardinal Onaiyekan commended the coalition's efforts and emphasized the importance of a strong opposition for Nigeria's democracy, advocating for competent and compassionate leadership to address citizens' challenges.
