Tinubu’s growing political influence is unsettling the PDP ranks. With murmurs of defection spreading, PDP leaders are set to meet next week to steady the ship.
- Some PDP governors are reportedly warming up to President Tinubu
- Party’s NWC plans urgent meeting to address rising disloyalty
- Ex-VP Atiku Abubakar and Nyesom Wike remain central to the power play
- PDP insiders blame “lack of cohesion” and “Tinubu’s outreach.”
- Party fears further loss of influence ahead of 2027
What’s playing out isn’t just party politics—it’s a deeper identity crisis. The PDP is struggling to hold onto its top brass as Tinubu makes overtures across party lines. With internal factions and quiet admiration for the President’s “accommodating” approach, some governors may be hedging their bets. The party’s leadership knows it’s now or never to rebuild trust—or risk a quiet collapse.
Can the PDP rally its fractured house before 2027 becomes a one-horse race?
