PDP-APM alliance: 'Political 419' - Wike; 'Let the people decide' - Makinde

Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike criticized claims of an alliance between the PDP and APM, labeling it a fraud and blaming Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde for promoting what he termed 'Political 419' ahead of the 2027 elections. Makinde's camp responded, asserting that the alliance is established and its outcome will be determined by the 2027 elections. Additionally, political figures were invited by security agencies over allegations of impersonation related to the formation of a rival interim National Working Committee.
