They’re Hiding In Hotels!” – APC’s Dalori Blasts 2027 Coalition As Dead On Arrival

The Acting National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ali Bukar Dalori, has downplayed the relevance of the opposition coalition planning to unseat the ruling party in the 2027 general elections.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

The coalition, reportedly led by former PDP presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar, Labour Party’s Peter Obi, and ex-Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai, has been generating buzz ahead of the next political cycle.

However, in an interview with BBC Hausa, Dalori—who stepped into the role following Abdullahi Ganduje’s resignation—brushed off the alliance, insisting it only exists within the confines of Abuja.

He said, “No one is seriously discussing this so-called coalition outside of Abuja. Even there, it’s limited to a hotel room. Once they lose the election, they’ll leave the country.”

Meanwhile, in a separate political shakeup, Mustapha Hamza Buhari Bakwana, former political adviser to Ganduje, has defected from the APC to join the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).

Speaking in Kano during a meeting with supporters, Bakwana pledged allegiance to the Kwankwasiyya movement led by former Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso. He attributed his defection to internal marginalisation, exclusion, and what he described as the lack of vision within the APC under Ganduje’s leadership.
