The All Progressives Congress, APC, in Lagos State, has claimed that opposition coalition moves against President Bola Tinubu’s re-election will soon collapse.
Spokesman for the party, Seye Oladejo, who said this in a statement on Friday stressed that the coalition talks lacked cohesion and were undermined by competing personal ambitions.
According to Oladejo, the arrangement was unstable and driven mainly by power struggle.
What is being marketed as a coalition is, in reality, a congregation of serial presidential aspirants, each unwilling to subordinate ego to collective purpose.
“From the outset, this assemblage has lacked ideological glue, moral cohesion, or a shared vision for Nigeria beyond a desperate fixation on power. Coalitions thrive on compromise; this one suffocates under entitlement.
Beneath the noise and contrived optimism, however, lies a fragile contraption wobbling under the weight of personal ambitions, mutual distrust, and irreconcilable contradictions,” Oladejo said.
The APC spokesman maintained that public ultimatums and pre-conditions among opposition leaders had exposed deep divisions.
He reiterated that demands for guaranteed presidential or vice-presidential tickets had replaced consensus-building.
