Wike: Rainbow Coalition backs Tinubu 2027, not APC; governors warn on parallel structures

Nigerian minister Nyesom Wike claims the Rainbow Coalition is mobilizing for President Tinubu's re-election rather than for the APC party, following warnings from APC governors against parallel political structures. This signals intra-party friction and potential realignment ahead of the 2027 election, with uncertainty over the coalition's formal relationship to the APC.
