54.⁠ ⁠Dawn of the ADC

This episode judges the murmurs of a new coalition on the horizon of Nigeria's electoral politics. We wade deep into the horse race (aided by many more mixed metaphors) to evaluate the chances of victory of the various Presidential/VP pairings come 2027.

The usual conversation about regional balances and comparisons of what each player might bring to the table follows. Is there victory for anyone in this coalition without Peter Obi?

But we also turn to more consequential questions: How does the excitement (or indifference) around this new coalition compare to the fanfare that accompanied the birth of the APC? In light of declining voter turnouts and the disillusionment that has grown during Tinubu’s tenure, can this new coalition rescue Tinubu’s ‘reform’ trajectory and Nigerian democracy?

Listen and let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
