There is serious scheming among top politicians in the coalition over the choice of presidential candidate for the 2027 election.
Facts have emerged regarding the decisions of some prominent politicians to withdraw from the arrangement after findings show that Atiku’s camp is planning an underground operation that may conflict with the wishes of others, potentially affecting the purpose of the coalition in 2027.

Sources within his camp have also revealed that Atiku is part of a coalition that may likely adopt the Social Democratic Party (SDP) as its official party to run in 2027.
Another source confirmed the latest development, revealing that some politicians are already scheming to hijack the party while the likes of Peter Obi and Nasir El-Rufai have vowed to pull out of any underground move.
“Atiku is part of the coalition, and they have several plans of ADA did not work, they will settle for SDP, but Atiku’s camp is already playing smart games, which is annoying Peter Obi and El-Rufai’s camp, threatening to pull out,’ a source told our reporter.
Meanwhile, efforts to register All Democratic Alliance are becoming frustrating over the response and conditions of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). This has led some politicians within the party to be pointing accusing fingers to electoral commission.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said that there is no shortcut to the registration of any political party in the country.
Sam Olumekun, the National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee for INEC said that despite the frenzy from the rumoured reports of the registration of the All Democratic Alliance (ADA), the party is yet to meet the requirements for the process.
Speaking during an interactive session with journalists in Abuja on Tuesday, Olumekun said INEC has received several letters of intent to register one political party or the other.
He, however, noted that not one has met the requirements needed to proceed to a formal registration application process.
“The truth is that we have so many letters of intent presently and none of them is an application yet. They must first meet the criteria before submitting a letter of intent,” Olumekun said.
