Ahead of the 2023 election, six United Kingdom-based groups under the aegis of the Nigerian Democratic Movement (NDM) have said they will mobilise other organisations to support the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu.
The groups are June 12 Movement, Nigerian Democratic Movement (NDM), Democratic League, National Conscience Party, Oduduwa Movement UK, Nigerian Project (UK).
The NDM Director of Media and Publicity, Dupe Ashama, said the coalition was one of the pro-democracy organisations in the Diaspora that fought against the annulment of the June 12 poll and was the largest organisation in the UK that hosted meetings of the National Democratic Coalition (NADECO) abroad and worked with others, leading to the enthronement civil rule after the death of Chief Moshood Abiola.
The coalition vowed to protect the rights of every Nigerian to free expression and choice “as long as it does not encroach on other people’s rights.” It said it would mount a campaign against incitement, defamation and political threats.
