Ibadan Declaration: Opposition Unites to Safeguard Nigeria’s Democracy Ahead of 2027

On April 25, 2026, major opposition parties met in Ibadan to issue a declaration warning of threats to Nigeria’s democratic institutions. They highlighted concerns over a creeping one-party state driven by institutional capture and urged unity behind a single presidential candidate in 2027.

It closes with an appeal to Nigerians to engage actively in the democratic process, reminding citizens that collective vigilance will determine the future of governance.
