Omoyele Sowore, the convener of the movement, vowed to never join the proposed alliance between former presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar of the People’s Democratic Party and Peter Obi of Labor.
Saul also said he will not join the Social Democratic Party (SDP) before the 2027 presidential election.
Talk during Arise TV’s appearance Today’s politicsSowore made it clear that he could only be consistent with what he called the “oppressed coalition.”
He said:
“I didn’t join any league. The league they joined in 2013 and 2015 was the cause of APC, so joining another league in 2025 is doing the same thing again without considering the same results.
The alliance that needs to be established is the oppressed alliance. Joining another alliance of those who caused the destruction of Nigeria was injustice and harm to the people of Nigeria.
So you can never see me in their alliance and I will never be a part of it. I’m not joining SDP. I am not part of those who play chess with the fate of Nigerians. ”
Atiku, Obi and former Kaduna Governor Nasir El-Rufai reportedly formed a coalition to evacuate President Bora Tinub from power in 2027.
Atiku revealed this at a press conference held by relevant leaders and political stakeholders in Nigeria.
He warned the government not to compare personal political interests with national stability, and warned that any attempt to impose power could lead the country into chaos. He stressed that this issue is not limited to river countries, but focuses on the future of Nigeria’s democracy.
