‘Opposition Has Collapsed’ — Fani-Kayode Slams ADC, Questions Its Credibility
Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has declared that opposition politics in Nigeria has effectively collapsed, taking a swipe at the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Fani-Kayode criticised the party’s structure and internal dynamics, arguing that it lacks the cohesion and strength required to serve as a viable alternative to the ruling party.
According to him, recent developments within opposition ranks point to fragmentation, defections, and weak leadership, which he said have diminished the effectiveness of opposition politics.
He also questioned the ability of the ADC to consolidate its gains and maintain its position amid ongoing internal challenges.
The remarks come at a time when political realignments and power struggles are intensifying ahead of the 2027 general elections, with parties repositioning for relevance.
Political analysts say Fani-Kayode’s comments reflect a broader debate about the state of opposition politics and whether emerging parties can truly challenge established structures.
However, supporters of the ADC insist that the party remains a growing force, despite internal disagreements, and is capable of reshaping the political landscape.
Observers note that the strength—or weakness—of opposition parties will play a critical role in determining the competitiveness of Nigeria’s democratic process in the coming years.
