On Monday, the Rivers State chapter of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) said it has uncovered an alleged plot by individuals linked to the Rainbow Coalition, including the University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT) Vice Chancellor, Professor Princewill Chike, to rig the forthcoming 2027 general elections.
Speaking in a viral video, the party alleged that the VC is a member of the Rainbow Coalition, a cross-party socio-political movement formed by the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
According to the ADC Publicity Secretary in Rivers State, Chizy Enyi, there are indications that the VC, who he claimed had publicly identified with the coalition, will nominate returning officers for the forthcoming election.

The statement read, “To show the public that he is truly Wike’s product, at the entrance of the university, what you will see is the signpost of the VC with the caption, ‘Academia Rainbow Coalition of the Renewed Hope,’ with his picture on it.
“Those he will nominate as INEC returning officers for the election must be members of the coalition.
“It’s not even election time yet, but see what he is doing. During the election, all those who will be recommended are definitely going to come from the coalition.
“Professor Chike, only God knows what you have come to do in Port Harcourt. Let us see those you will recommend. Let us see whether they will rig the election.”
