The presidential candidates involved in the consultations are Alhaji Atiku Abubakar of the ADC, Governor Seyi Makinde of the APM, Mr Peter Obi of the NDC, Prince Adewole Adebayo of the SDP and Mr Donald Duke of the PRP.

He said the engagements would allow party leaders and presidential candidates to discuss a framework for cooperation, identify areas of common ground and advance a shared democratic agenda.

“At the heart of this process is the conviction that the challenges confronting Nigeria demand serious engagement across party lines,” the statement said.

It added that consultations were ongoing and that Nigerians would be informed of substantive decisions and subsequent steps as the discussions progressed.
