Power move from a major opposition party, shooting down equal partnership deals. The United Democratic Party's Bundung constituency branch rejected any fifty-fifty coalition arrangement, insisting it must lead any alliance. Spokesperson Sulayman Dampha stated the UDP remains open to partnerships aimed at grabbing power but only as the dominant majority partner, referencing its election performance and grassroots strength.
Dampha threw shade at other figures, accusing them of personal ambition over collective opposition goals. He noted instances where past candidates joined the ruling party for appointments after losing. The UDP claims it is the only opposition force consistently challenging for the presidency, citing results from assembly and local council races.
The party pointed to its financial resources, organized supporters, and intellectual capital as justification for leading any coalition. These comments arrive amid renewed talks about uniting opposition groups before future elections. Analysts suggest such alliances could majorly influence the electoral landscape.
