Former Bayelsa State Governor and National Democratic Coalition (NDC) leader, Seriake Dickson, on Thursday hosted Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi and New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) leader Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, in what is widely seen as a significant political meeting ahead of the formal launch of the NDC’s 2027 presidential campaign.
The closed-door meeting, held amid growing political realignments ahead of the 2027 general election, has fuelled speculation over possible strategic collaborations among key opposition figures seeking to reshape Nigeria’s political landscape.
Although details of the discussions were not immediately made public, the gathering comes at a critical time as political parties and coalitions intensify consultations ahead of the commencement of nationwide campaigns.
The meeting has attracted widespread attention, with political observers describing it as one of the most notable high-level engagements among opposition leaders in recent months.
The NDC is expected to formally unveil its campaign activities in the coming weeks as preparations for the 2027 presidential election gather momentum.
