Ibrahim Suleiman, and others, made this demand at a press conference on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>They noted the opposition coalition under ADC must be oriented to produce elected leaders whose character is different.<\/p>\n<p>According to the stakeholders, on no account should a presidential candidate be imposed on ADC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs stakeholders in Kaduna State, we want to appeal for the protection of the national leadership to prevent a repeat of another political disappointment in the name of a campaign to rescue Nigerian democracy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen political leaders are intolerant, what comes out of them will be realities such as being discriminatory, self-serving, and lawless. Where this is allowed to be the case, the default mindset of such a political leader will be imposition and winning elections through rigging. These are dominantly the character of elected leaders today, which the coalition and ADC want to change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn no account should anyone use the fraudulent practice of imposing a so-called consensus to trample on internal democracy within the Coalition and ADC. Achieving the new orientation will require that meetings be held and members are allowed to freely express themselves, including the right to disagree with political leaders and offer better alternatives,\u201d they stated.<\/p>\n<p>This comes as opposition coalition leaders, including ex-Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Nasir El-Rufai, Peter Obi of the Labour Party, and former Nigerian Interior Minister Rauf Aregbesola, recently threw their weight behind ADC to unseat incumbent President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2027.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Nigeria<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
