As the Edo gubernatorial election approaches this Saturday, a significant political shift has emerged. Nine political parties have decided to merge with the All Progressives Congress (APC), creating a formidable alliance poised to influence the outcome of the election.

This unprecedented consolidation underscores the strategic maneuvering occurring within Edo’s political landscape. By joining forces with the APC, these parties aim to amplify their collective strength and enhance their chances of success against the incumbent government.

The decision reflects a broader trend of collaboration in Nigerian politics, where alliances are becoming increasingly vital in securing electoral victories. With this merger, the APC is not just bolstering its numbers; it is also reinforcing its position as a dominant force in the region.

As candidates prepare to take the stage, all eyes will be on how this new coalition shapes the campaign dynamics and whether it can translate unity into votes. The stakes are high, and the political arena is set for an intense showdown this weekend.
