Senator Oluremi Tinubu, the wife of the APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, and the head of the women’s campaign team, led a delegation of prominent female politicians to the event, which was held at the well-known U.J. Esuene Sports Stadium. Also present was Hajiya Nana, the spouse of Tinubu’s running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima.

Aisha Buhari, the First Lady and the team’s grand patron, was not present during the event, but she was represented by Zahra Buhari-Indimi, who arrived for it wearing a vibrant “Aso Ebi” bearing the APC logo.
On arrival in Calabar, the delegation paid a courtesy call on the Obong of Calabar, Edidem Otu V, who was represented by the Prime Minister.

In her speech, the First Lady disclosed she was optimistic that women and youths of the region “will deliver in the forthcoming general election,” noting that the ”party stands for peace and progress.”

“I therefore urged all our women and youths to be fully committed to the campaign,” she charged.

In the same vein, Tinubu’s wife extolled the qualities of women from the South-South region and pledged her commitment to ensuring that women’s issues are prioritised if the APC presidential candidate and his running mate were elected.

She said, “The APC women campaign team called on women in this region to support our dear party in its quest to win the upcoming elections.”

While appreciating the female politicians including his wife, Linda, gathered at the stadium for choosing Cross River State for the women’s campaign flag off in the South-South region, Governor Ben Ayade said he was impressed by their leadership qualities.

He said, “Our support for Tinubu is not because he is perfect. Our support for Tinubu is because of his proven excellent track record as a people person who can consolidate on the gains of the present, drive inclusive growth, and lead our country to become more prosperous.

“The Tinubu-Shettima ticket is the most experienced and the most progressive combination available on the ballot.”

In a related development, the APC National Women Leader, Dr. Betta Edu, who hails from Cross River, assured the women of her commitment to ensuring women’s interests were protected and urged women to come out en masse to deliver a record number of votes for the APC candidate.

Sheikh Jingir had previously advocated for the retention of a Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket ahead of the 2027 elections, arguing that it serves to demonstrate demographic weight.

Kwankwaso’s Response

In a statement issued on Monday, Kwankwaso expressed deep concern over the cleric’s remarks, stating that such rhetoric threatens national unity and cohesion.

  • Call for Unity: He emphasized that religious and political leaders have a responsibility to foster reconciliation and avoid statements that could deepen societal divisions.

  • Stance of Kano Residents: Kwankwaso explicitly distanced the population of Kano from the cleric’s comments, asserting that they do not reflect the views of the state’s citizens.

  • Outlook on 2027: Looking ahead to the upcoming general elections, he stated that voters will have the opportunity to evaluate the performance of the current administration at the ballot box.

Total War In Football: UEFA, AFC, And Concacaf Unleash Blistering ‘Deception’ Attack On FIFA!.

Published

on

In a joint open letter released on August 10, UEFA, the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), and Concacaf launched a scathing critique against FIFA and its president, Gianni Infantino, accusing them of breaking the trust of football institutions through deception.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

The Core Dispute: The FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE)

The controversy centers around FIFA’s abandoned FFE proposal, which aimed to establish a new company to manage the commercial and ticketing rights of FIFA competitions—including the World Cup—with a 21 percent stake intended for sale to a private investment firm. The plan was ultimately scrapped following heavy backlash and boycott threats led by UEFA.

While FIFA previously defended itself by condemning efforts to “undermine” leadership and announced an internal review to report to the FIFA Council in October, the three confederations rejected this approach. They argued that proper governance demands an independent third-party investigation rather than a self-review by FIFA staff or stakeholders.

Governance and Lack of Consultation

The three bodies emphasized that the dispute is not financially motivated, but rather concerns institutional integrity, power execution, and stakeholder consultation. They criticized FIFA for pushing the FFE proposal through a compressed timeline designed to avoid proper scrutiny, pointing out that a leadership meeting in Morocco regarding the matter lacked participation from Member Associations or FIFA Council members, featuring only FIFA-employed senior staff.

Concluding their letter with a call for accountability, the confederations urged the global football community to honor unity and demand leadership that serves the game rather than commanding it.
