Inside the NDC Rift: How Peter Obi Overlooked Warnings on His Seriake Dickson Alliance
Fresh details reveal growing tensions within the opposition Nigeria Democratic Congress. Insiders say Peter Obi was cautioned against partnering with former Bayelsa governor Seriake Dickson before the party launched. According to a key witness, Obi dismissed concerns about Dickson’s reputation. He insisted his motive was to tackle Nigeria’s systemic problems rather than personal gain. Now, factions loyal to Obi and Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso suspect Dickson may be secretly aiding the ruling APC. They point to leadership disputes and administrative roadblocks as signs of sabotage. With 2027 elections approaching, this mistrust threatens the stability of a coalition once billed as a formidable united front.
