He said consultations are ongoing across the North and South to find a better alternative to President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
The talks involve leaders from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Labour Party (LP), New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), and civil society groups.
Some discontented APC members are also participating in the discussions.
Sources say opposition leaders are keeping their strategies secret to avoid suppression by the ruling party.
However, they are confident that growing dissatisfaction with Tinubu’s government will work in their favor.
Many believe that APC’s policies have weakened its popularity, especially in the North.
Bugaje stated that many in the North are unhappy with the government’s policies.
He believes a new political force will emerge before the next elections.
“The North is deeply unhappy with the current administration. A viable alternative will emerge before the 2027 elections, either gradually or in a significant way,” he said.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
