2027: Opposition’s joint presidential ticket causes stir

Opposition leaders, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi, gathered in Ibadan to pledge support for a joint candidate against President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 elections. The initiative elicited mixed reactions, with some APC members, such as Wike and Keyamo, dismissing the move as 'dead on arrival'. Governor Makinde faced criticism from the APC for referencing the violent legacy of 'Operation Wetie' during the summit.
