Nigeria’s opposition forces have sounded a defiant rallying cry, vowing to close ranks and confront the nation’s political future with a united front.
At the National Opposition Summit held in Ibadan, leaders spoke “with one voice—fearless and unmistakable,” declaring that the time has come to forge a cohesive alliance driven by a shared mission to defend and sustain democracy.
Describing unity as a sacred duty rather than a political option, participants warned that the responsibility transcends present interests and extends to generations yet unborn.
The gathering, hosted in Oyo State, drew praise for its symbolic significance, with attendees noting the state’s historic role as a political battleground where defining moments in Nigeria’s democracy often unfold.
Special commendation was given to Governor Seyi Makinde for hosting the summit, as well as to the people of Oyo State for their warmth and resilience.
With bold declarations and renewed resolve, the summit signals what analysts describe as a potential turning point—one that could reshape Nigeria’s opposition politics ahead of future contests.
