Opposition Summit: G100 lists focal areas, names expected participants

Lukman, the Summit, convened under the theme “A Framework for Opposition Cooperation and Coordination,” will bring together the leadership of Nigeria’s principal opposition political parties to begin a structured negotiation on the terms, institutions and principles upon which they may cooperate ahead of the 2027 general election.

Each participating political party is expected to attend with a delegation of leaders and key stakeholders drawn from its national leadership and other relevant constituencies, the statement said, adding that these delegations will participate fully in deliberations to ensure the process extends beyond principal party leaders and draws on a broader range of political experience, perspectives and interests.

The statement listed expected participants as National Chairmen, party leaders and members of the National Working Committees of the African Democratic Congress ADC, Allied Peoples Movement APM, National Democratic Congress NDC, Peoples Democratic Party PDP, Peoples Redemption Party PRP and Social Democratic Party SDP; Presidential Candidates and Running Mates of the participating political parties; and G100 signatories and members of the Minority Caucus of the House of Representatives.
