Tinubu’s Walkover Strategy: The Slow Demise of Nigeria’s Opposition
No Nigerian president has shown more fear of a genuine contest than Bola Tinubu. He seems determined not to fight a real election but to stage a walkover. The ruling party has quietly eroded opposition platforms. Funds are used to buy leaders. Courts issue dubious rulings. INEC enforces confusing interpretations. These tactics have left the PDP rudderless and deepened internal divisions in smaller parties like the ADC. Our democracy now teeters on the brink. Key figures once championing unity are sidelined. The last-minute removal of David Mark as ADC chairman shows how fragile these platforms have become. If the opposition hopes to defend Nigeria’s electoral integrity, it must unite with urgency. Only a coordinated stalemate can compel a fair contest and preserve our democratic foundations.
