ENUGU—A grand coalition of all the opposition parties in Enugu State has been formed to take on Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in 2015 governorship election.

The coalition, which was a fallout of yesterday’s meeting of the state chapter of Conference of National Political Parties, CNPP, in Enugu, resolved to present a sole candidate against PDP in the 2015 elections.

The opposition group also faulted Governor Sullivan Chime’s plan to build a N13 billion state secretariat complex, saying such a gigantic project should not be a priority of a state that is being weighed down by increasing youth unemployment.

Addressing journalists after the meeting, state Secretary of CNPP, Mr. John Nwobodo, described those who say there is no opposition in Enugu State as people living in illusion. He said they will be disappointed in the 2015 general elections, which would be a clean sweep in favour of the opposition parties.
