Nigeria’s opposition landscape is set for a dramatic shift as key political leaders across parties converge today in Ibadan for what is being described as a landmark national summit aimed at forging unity ahead of mounting national challenges.
The high-stakes gathering, holding at the Banquet Hall of Government House, brings together influential opposition figures under one roof in a rare show of solidarity, as concerns deepen over the country’s socio-economic and security situation.
Chaired by former President Olusegun Obasanjo and hosted by Seyi Makinde, the summit carries the urgent theme, “That We May Work Together for a United Opposition to Sustain Our Democracy.”
The meeting is widely seen as a strategic move to close ranks and present a formidable, united front capable of challenging the current political order while addressing growing public discontent.
With political tensions rising nationwide, the Ibadan summit signals a defining moment for opposition forces seeking to realign, rebuild trust, and reposition themselves as a credible alternative in Nigeria’s evolving democratic space.
