A group of 100 prominent Nigerians under the aegis of G100 has formally appealed to leaders of the opposition across the country to close ranks ahead of the 2027 general election, urging them to subordinate personal ambition to national interest and rally behind a common front capable of challenging President Bola Tinubu and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
In an open letter titled: “The Doctrine of a Necessary Democratic Opposition: An Open Letter to the Leaders of the Opposition, Leaders of Thought, Civil Society, and Nigerians of Good Conscience,” the group warned that Nigeria was facing a deep structural crisis, arguing that the country could not sustain a healthy democracy without a strong and united opposition.
