BREAKING: 7 Political Parties align to battle APC, PDP in 2023

Seven Political Parties have joined forces to fight the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC and Frontline Opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in the upcoming 2023 general Elections.

After 15 solid months of deliberations and agreements, the Allied political parties and the National Consultative front, comprising of 6 parties, decided to join forces with the Labour Party to present a joint Presidential Candidate for the 2023 polls.

Speaking on the matter, Ms Bello Bilikis, a spokesperson for the National Consultative Front (NCFront), disclosed that the formal endorsement of the Labour Party by the ‘3rd Force’ Movement arose from recent meetings and activities of separate political commissions of the NLC and the TUC with their allies like the Femi Falana-led The Political Alternative Movement, TPAM in the Civil Society, towards repositioning the Labour Party as an “alternative platform for rescuing Nigeria ahead of the 2023 general elections.”

The Parties in the Coalition are New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, African Democratic Congress, ADC; Social Democratic Party, SDP; Allied Peoples Movement, APM, People’s Redemption party, PRP, Labour Party, LP and National Rescue Movement, NRM.

She added that Prof Attahiru Jega of the People’s Redemption Party, PRP, Professor Pat Utomi of the Labour Party and Senator Saidu Dansadau of the National Rescue Movement, NRM are also onboard with the arrangement and have been instructed to build a Mega Electoral Alliance and also adopt of a single line of candidates among the seven allied parties involved in the ‘3rd Force’ alliance talks for the 2023 elections.

“With the novel synergy between the Labour Party and the NCFront, the convening platform of the 3rd Force Movement, which is also today the largest political mass movement in the country, Nigerians can be rest assured that the glorious future we all desire for our dear country, is now achievable by 2023, especially with the brewing implosion hovering over the ruling cartel of APC and PDP, which will soon burst into unpreventable disintegration after their party primaries,” she said.

“To this end, an inclusive Consensus Technical Committee to screen presidential candidates and other candidates of ‘3rd Force’ allied Parties towards the adoption of a single line of candidates across all 2023 elections, is expected to be set up next month after the conclusion of all party primaries.”
