Activist lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, has suggested that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) never expected that the likes of Mr. Peter Obi would join the coalition by the opposition leaders.
Adeyanju claimed that “they were so sure of easy pass to the Villa.”
In a post on his Facebook page on Friday, the activist lawyer alleged that the ruling party were calling their ‘juju’ man to inquire how Obi joined the coalition.
He said: “They didn’t believe H.E. Peter Obi and others will join the coalition. They were so sure of easy pass to the Villa. They are calling their juju man like how did you allow this?”
DAILY POST reported that the opposition coalition on Wednesday formally adopted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as its official political platform for the 2027 elections in order to wrest power from the ruling APC.
Ex-Vice President Atiku Abubakar; Mr. Peter Obi of the Labour Party; former governor of Kaduna State, Malam Nasir El-Rufai; and a former Rivers State governor, Rotimi Amaechi, among others, are championing the coalition.
