In a significant political development, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Former Senator Ishaku Abbo, Former Senator Aishatu Binani, and key members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) are currently engaged in a high-level coalition meeting in Yola, the Adamawa State capital.
The gathering, which is taking place behind closed doors, is said to focus on forging stronger political alliances ahead of the upcoming elections, with discussions centered on shared interests and strategies for the future of the region.
Sources close to the meeting have revealed that the attendees are looking at potential collaboration among opposition groups, as well as exploring ways to strengthen their political influence in the state and nationally. The presence of prominent figures such as Atiku Abubakar, a former presidential candidate and a major political figure in Nigeria, adds weight to the significance of the discussions.
Former Senator Ishaku Abbo, representing Adamawa North, and APC Governorship Candidate Senator Aishatu Binani, a key APC figure in the state, are understood to be key players in the ongoing negotiations, further signaling the potential for realignment within the political landscape of the state.
Political analysts believe that this meeting could be a precursor to new alliances and shifts in the political structure of Adamawa State, a region that has been a political battleground in recent years. With 2027 elections approaching, the outcome of these talks could have far-reaching implications for the political future of both Adamawa State and the broader national stage.
While the details of the discussions remain confidential, there is growing speculation that the coalition may include future collaboration for upcoming elections and the potential for support across party lines.
As the meeting continues, all eyes are on Yola to see if this coalition marks the beginning of a new political era in Adamawa State and beyond.
More updates are expected to follow as the situation unfolds.
