President Bola Tinubu dismissed the opposition coalition movement as a gathering of “political IDPs” during a visit to Nasarawa State, according to TheCable. He was in Lafia on Wednesday to commission projects by Governor Abdullahi Sule, warning Nigerians not to be swayed by the early political manoeuvring of those “searching for a home.”
- Tinubu criticised the opposition coalition, calling its members “politically displaced persons” seeking relevance.
- The coalition, involving Atiku Abubakar, Nasir El-Rufai, and others, is pushing to register the All Democratic Alliance (ADA) ahead of 2027.
- INEC has yet to register ADA officially, as debates continue over which party the coalition should adopt.
- Tinubu said his administration is cutting waste and credited Nasarawa’s development to synergy with the federal government.
No Seat at the Table isn’t just an insult; it’s a signal. Tinubu is reminding rivals that power isn’t begged for, it’s claimed and defended. When the gate to influence is shut, the struggle becomes not just political, but existential.
