A political analyst, Henry Shield, has said there is no justification for opposition parties to remain divided ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Mr Shield stated this on Monday during a political programme in Abuja, where he urged opposition leaders to close ranks and present a united front capable of challenging the ruling party.
According to him, Nigerians are expecting a strong and coordinated opposition that can provide alternative leadership and address the country’s growing economic and security challenges.
“There is no reason to have a divided opposition in 2027. If the opposition parties truly want to rescue Nigeria, they must come together and speak with one voice,” he strongly said.
He warned that personal interests and internal rivalry among opposition politicians could weaken their chances in the next election cycle.
He also called on political stakeholders to place national interest above individual ambition, stressing that unity remains the strongest weapon against electoral defeat.
He maintained that coalition talks among opposition figures should be taken seriously to avoid repeating mistakes of previous elections.
