Nigeria’s opposition coalition plans to expand its membership ahead of the 2027 general elections. Vanguard and Information Nigeria report that the coalition’s Central Leadership Committee resolves to make room for additional opposition parties that express interest in joining.

Both outlets say the decision is contained in a statement issued in Abuja. The statement is attributed to Salihu Moh. Lukman on behalf of the coalition’s leadership.

The reports describe the move as part of a broader effort to build a wider “anti–Bola Tinubu” alliance for the 2027 vote. While both sources focus on the membership-expansion resolution, they do not provide further detail in their summaries on which specific parties are expected to join, the criteria for admission, or any changes to the coalition’s leadership structure.
