A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Daniel Bwala, on Tuesday, said opposition political parties will come together to form a strong coalition that will wrest power from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 general elections.

Bwala, who was a guest on Channels Television’s Politics Today, said without a coalition of opposition parties, President Bola Tinubu will spend eight years in office as Nigeria’s President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces.

“Without a coalition of political parties, Tinubu is going to spend the next eight years. That one is for sure,” Bwala said.

“The truth of the matter is that there will be a coalition of political parties that will be very strong. This is a fact that I know. The coalition that is coming will swallow some of the elements that are creating the problems in the various political parties,” he said.

During the programme, Bwala accused Tinubu of instigating crises in opposition parties, citing the problems that confronted the Labour Party and the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) as instances.

‘Fubara Entered A Trap’

The PDP chieftain also weighed in on the crisis in oil-rich Rivers State, following a purported fallout between Governor Siminalayi Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, who now serves as minister in the APC-led Federal Government.

A few weeks ago, 27 lawmakers loyal to Wike dumped the PDP for the APC, with the opposition party demanding their resignation as lawmakers.

As part of the means to resolve the impasse, President Tinubu met with stakeholders from Rivers State at the Presidential Villa that had Fubara, Wike, and former governor Peter Odili among others in attendance. Part of the recommendations was for the cross-carpeting lawmakers to retain their positions in the House of Assembly.

Reacting, Bwala predicted that the governor would be removed from office, adding that he already stepped into the trap set for him. Though he didn’t indicate who set trap for Fubara, Bwala called for prayers for the governor.

He said, “As for Rivers, you only need to pray for that governor. The governor does not know what is even happening. Only time will tell what is happening.

“But if he (Fubara) says that is the path he has chosen, you can only wish him well.”

With or without coalition....as long as the Inec remains partisan, he will do complete 8 yrs there

We've seen it from the last election.

The figures was altered and he was hurriedly announced a winner when all Nigerians were sleeping hoping to continue the electoral process the next day.


As far as INEC is concerned..... Dude will be elected next election.

Shut up

That one is konstant-K.. The guy is a political genius. He would probably come up with something to deceive the gullible Nigerians before the end of his first tenure

No doubt

My PVC day where I keep ham

He own my vote in next election

Even his opponents kws this

As for Lagos State after Sanwolu, Ambode is coming to complete his tenure

Don't quote me for wrong purpose to avoid 78 years ban 🤣🤣

O

First PDP should clear herself of members working for APC

Even with coalition, he will still do 8 years. Only death (God forbid) can stop Asiwaju’s 2nd term.

Let us focus on improving the country before the next election.

Make no mistake,
Fubara is the most clueless person in Rivers state...man is too dull to even be a Youth leader..let alone governor😏
He's a simpleton.. he's weak, an ingrate, a jigaboo.
One minute, u are saying we won to a congregation...next minute u are saying at the state banquet that it's necessary to have compromised.... Omo.
Make person advise Sim..... bcus the way he's going....well only time will tell.
As Bwala said, If u like him...pray for him..

ppogba:


It is the mumuness in Fubara that made Wike to choose him.

There are astute politicians in the state that Wike would never choose.

Ofcus...wike fought many big wigs in the state prior to pdp state primaries... Lee meba, Austin okpara and a whole lot of them who wanted to contest..but wike singlehandedly picked sim as the simp that he is...! The truth is...it's too early for a Sim to fight wike...man has been a civil servant his whole life ..and you want to engage in a political fight wit a seasoned politician at his zenith??
No Now. That was a wrong move.
.

Kingosytex:


The only thing saving Wike is being in Tinubu’s good books. If not, Sim will use the same powe r Wike exercised and deal with Wike.

.
I totally agree wit you...but as it is now..he should apply wisdom..don't fight a fight u knw..u are likely not going to survive.
.

ppogba:


I will give you the credit for being the most sensible comment thus far on the crises. A civil servant all his life......

Same was Ambode too but ignoramuses thought he had a fight in him.

Thanks Boss , I like to be objective... Anyone who is emotional in politics...will hardly ever get anything right.

Even with coalition or cohabitation that man will do his eight years in office. He is really really smart in politics and the powers that worked against him last year are now in his own hands. The north won't want to truncate this present arrangement between the north/south so it is better they let him do his second term so power can come back to the north for eight years.
My concern is for the south east because of our kind of politics. After the northern rule, don't be surprised if the southwest and north support power shift to the south south.

Maybe you are talking about military coalition. Tinubu is not Jonathan or Buhari, even after 8 years it would require, more than colition to defeat APC under Tinubu watch, it's only death and probably if military ready, that can stop Tinubu and not any political colition or 3rd force.


Buhari gave you express way to Aso rock, you guys foolishly gave ur ticket to selfish and serial looser.

Election in Nigeria is a waste of scarce resources. Before election, the predictable INEC has selected the winner

Get Lost Oga Bwalla..!!

Let the Tinubu even have a third tenure join sef..


That's what we deserve.
So, that's what we get.


We are here talking about how to fix the immediate Nigeria of 2024, and this guy is very busy over there talking about Coalition for far-away 2027.

This is as clear as Daylight. But first of all, Atiku should not be in the picture.

You were in courts saying "I
We will reclaim our mandate" I have proof" Do you have that elusive proof now? 2024 get sense change pattern

All I see are people fighting over national cake

W or W/O coalition - 8 years is sure

Same coalition that birthed the chaotic party APC and has put Nigerians in this difficult situation they are currently facing today!
As much as I detest APC,PDP is not the solution and will certainly do far worse than the ruling party they are criticizing if given another chance to lead!

Everything soft

Coalition of Looters.
Was that not how ACN, CPC, New PDP (led by same Atiku), Okorocha APGA amalgamated to form APC? What good come out of it.

The fact still remains, all these politicians are running for selfish interest not for betterment of Nigerians

Then no hope for Ibo presidency again because Atiku always get the ticket

And Idiotic pdp don't know after 8 years of buhari power should come to the south? but they know we need a coalition?
