Works Minister and former Ebonyi governor David Umahi says there is no “rainbow coalition” in Ebonyi State. He adds that the state remains aligned with the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its candidates as Nigeria looks ahead to the 2027 elections.
Umahi’s comments appear to respond to reports or speculation about a possible cross-party alliance in the state. Both outlets frame his position as a direct denial, emphasizing his insistence that Ebonyi does not have the kind of coalition suggested by the “rainbow” label.
While the reports focus on the same claim, they differ mainly in phrasing rather than substance. Vanguard and The Punch both attribute the statement to Umahi and both present it as an assertion about Ebonyi’s political alignment and candidate support ahead of the next election cycle.
