2027: G100 unveils new name to unseat Tinubu

In a bid to unseat President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general election, opposition parties have shifted their name from 'G100' to 'Coalition for Democracy'. This change was announced by Salihu Lukman, a convenor of the coalition, during a meeting of the Central Leadership Committee in Abuja. The coalition's new identity reflects their united commitment to safeguarding constitutional democracy, upholding the rule of law, and defending the fundamental political rights of Nigerians.

The coalition, which includes parties like the African Democratic Congress, Nigeria Democratic Congress, Peoples Redemption Party, Social Democratic Party, and Peoples Democratic Party, among others, issued a stern warning to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). They accused APC of steadily eroding Nigeria's democratic space and creating an electoral system that unfairly favors the ruling party over the opposition.

The coalition also demanded a forensic audit of the voters' register before December 15 and requested INEC to provide all registered political parties with electronic copies of the preliminary and certified voters' register.
