Seriake Dickson, a former Bayelsa State Governor, has issued a subtle warning to the leaders of the newly formed political coalition.
There is an ongoing coalition being built by the likes of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, ex-Rivers Governor Rotimi Amaechi, former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai, among others.
Top politicians across the country gathered to celebrate the 60th birthday of Amaechi in Abuja on Saturday.
Speaking earlier, Atiku had declared himself, Amaechi, and El-Rufai as conspirators.
Atiku said he, Amaechi, and the opposition coalition are united in their opposition to President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
In response, Dickson warned his political colleagues to be mindful of the choices they make, adding that their past conspiracy and coalition, which removed the Peoples Democratic Party and Goodluck Jonathan from office in 2015, has not favoured Nigerians.
He said, “When I came in here and climbing up here, I’ve seen a lot of you. And as my brother said, there are a number of you who are expert conspirators, who know how to assemble coalitions and then take out governments, as you did to my party in 2015.
“And when you did so, particularly to a clueless government, so-called, now 11 years down the line, we thought that there would have been no weaponization of poverty and that all the challenges of Nigeria would have been gone.
“And the only advice I can give, not being a professional coalition builder and conspirator as some of you are, is at this time, shine your eyes.”
