The Coalition of Political Parties has slammed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), claiming many of its leaders are secretly backing the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

This was said in a statement by Salihu Lukman, a former APC National Vice Chairman (North-West), as he reacted to the PDP Governors’ Forum’s opposition to forming a broad alliance of opposition parties and stakeholders.

According to Lukman, the proposed coalition isn’t just a strategy to challenge APC and President Bola Tinubu. He believes it’s a necessary step to save Nigeria’s democracy, which he says is hanging by a thread.

He argued that the credibility of political institutions, especially parties, can only be revived through genuine competition—something he says is currently missing.

Lukman pointed to the PDP as an example of democracy’s decline, reminding Nigerians that the same party which once boasted of ruling for 60 years is now struggling to stay relevant.

He said Nigerians who truly want to defend democracy must stop holding on to parties like the PDP, accusing its leaders of being more loyal to Tinubu’s government than to their own platform.

“There’s no point putting time and resources into a party whose top figures either serve in the APC government or work silently in its favour,” he said.

He also questioned the PDP’s leadership, describing their actions as self-sabotaging and damaging to the party’s future.

Lukman stressed that the goal of the coalition is not just about winning elections, but about rebuilding the foundation of Nigeria’s democratic system.

“We have built our health system, primary education, and reduced out-of-school children. We have been awarded three times by the federal government for development and good governance. And they are accusing us? What kind of paradox is this?”
