Pat Utomi, professor of political economy, has announced the formation of a shadow government under the Big Tent Coalition Shadow Government, unveiled virtually on Monday, May 5. The initiative is designed to serve as a structured opposition to President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
A shadow government, typically found in parliamentary systems, mirrors the structure of the actual government, offering scrutiny, policy alternatives, and a platform for the opposition. Utomi described this version as a “national emergency response” to the Tinubu administration’s policies and governance.
According to Utomi, the group includes members from various opposition parties and aims to critically examine government actions, highlight policy shortcomings, and offer alternative approaches across key sectors such as the economy, education, healthcare, infrastructure, law and order, and constitutional reform.
“The recent spate of defections to the All Progressives Congress provides further evidence that all is not well with democracy in Nigeria,” Utomi said. He emphasized the need for a credible opposition to spotlight governance failures and reshape national discourse.

He also criticised the government’s handling of the petroleum subsidy removal, accusing it of masking poor planning under the guise of political consensus.
“This shadow team must also address issues of ethics, transparency, and integrity, which continue to challenge this government at every turn,” he added. The shadow cabinet will reportedly meet weekly to review public policy and suggest reforms.
