Preparations for the 2027 general elections are already underway, with political calculations taking place three years in advance.
According to reports, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the Labour Party (LP), and the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) are considering merging to create a strong political party that aims to overthrow the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
In an exclusive interview with Channels Television, Professor Pat Utomi, a political economist, confirms that the presidential candidates from these parties in the 2023 elections have agreed to form a mega party.
He also discusses the discussions that led to the formation of the APC in 2014 and his relationship with President Bola Tinubu.
Who do you believe should be the proposed party’s presidential candidate?
