Because of lacking of enough power to defeat Naruto, Nagato was forced to have a conversation with him, leading to Nagato betraying Madara. Or......Nagato simply couldn't use the power because he's not the Original owner.

Secondarily, Madara under no circumstances could've foreseen Naruto turning Nagato. Pretty much the entire plan was going just fine. If Kushina had still been the Jinchuriki, she easily would've been captured and Konoha wouldn't have dealt with most of the Akatsuki. Obito's attack was almost certainly no part of the plan.

There was no reason for Madara to believe that anyone could turn Nagato that way, or that Nagato would need such power.
