Buba Galadima, a prominent figure in the Nigeria Democratic Congress, expressed satisfaction that the opposition coalition did not unite prior to the 2027 presidential elections. Galadima questioned the prospects of the opposition if the coalition had gained traction, as President Bola Tinubu appears to favor running as the sole presidential candidate.
Speaking to AIT, the seasoned politician stated, "I'm glad the coalition didn't work. If all of us were in the ADC, what would be our fate?" Galadima further warned that had the opposition parties united under a single candidate, as Justice Lifu did, it would leave no alternative but to allow Tinubu to win unopposed. He contended that opposition parties should field a specific candidate against the ruling party.
Galadima also revealed his rationale for endorsing Atiku Abubakar as the ADC presidential candidate in 2019, attributing it to his belief in competence and justice. He clarified that his support for Atiku was based on the alliance between the R-APC and the PDP, not on Atiku's individual qualities. Regardless of familial ties, Galadima emphasized that he would not back any candidate lacking the necessary leadership qualities.
