However, he remains optimistic about the opposition party’s prospects ahead of the 2027 general election.


Speaking during an interview on National Television, Saraki addressed the internal crises affecting the PDP, while offering insight into the party’s strategy for recovery and unity. He also weighed in on broader developments within Nigeria’s political landscape.


Reacting to the wave of defections hitting the PDP in recent weeks, Saraki admitted that the situation was far from over.


“At this time, PDP would likely see one or two more defections. And we should prepare ourselves for that. There is a possibility. Maybe Fubara, maybe others, the worst is not yet. We haven’t seen the worst of the defections for PDP,” he said.
