No Zoning: President Tinubu Dispels Zoning Notions For Edo Elections During Key Meeting With Oshiomhole....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

In a dramatic turn of events following his visit to President Tinubu at the villa, former APC National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, has set tongues wagging with his scathing denouncement of alleged imposition tactics within the party. In a passionate and no-holds-barred speech, Oshiomhole lashed out at those he accused of attempting to manipulate the democratic process for their own ends…READ FULL ARTICLE.

 

“I have the authority of the President to address the press on this matter, because of the various lies and half-truths,” Oshiomhole stated confidently, laying the groundwork for a passionate critique of what he sees as efforts to subvert the wishes of the populace.

The crux of Oshiomhole’s argument lies in the fundamental principle of democracy: the voice of the majority must prevail. He vehemently rejected the notion of individual or elite consensus dictating the outcome of elections, emphasizing that the true test of fairness lies in a process that reflects the genuine choices of the electorate.

Drawing parallels with other states and historical precedents, Oshiomhole challenged the notion of zoning and turn-by-turn democracy, asserting his belief in a merit-based system where competence and performance are the ultimate yardsticks for leadership.

“I am not a product of zoning. I am not a believer in turn-by-turn democracy,” Oshiomhole declared emphatically, invoking his own electoral victories as evidence of his convictions.

Amidst the heated rhetoric, Oshiomhole made it abundantly clear that the President stands firmly behind the principles of fairness and meritocracy. He reiterated assurances from the highest echelons of power that the APC primaries would be conducted democratically, with members themselves determining their flagbearer.

With the battle lines drawn and tensions running high, all eyes are now on the APC primaries, where the true test of democracy will unfold under the watchful gaze of the Nigerian public.

In the words of Oshiomhole himself, “Fairness is not by individual allocating, fairness is by the process.” And as the nation braces itself for the forthcoming electoral showdown, one thing remains certain: the fight for the soul of democracy in Nigeria has only just begun.

Osigwe Omo-Ikirodah is the Chairman and CEO of Bush Radio Academy.

DEATH FROM ABOVE: Principal Details Harrowing Ordeal Amid Heavy Military Air Strikes During 56-Day Kidnapping!.

Published

Mrs. Rachel Alamu, Principal of Esinle Community High School, has shared a harrowing account of her 56-day captivity after being kidnapped alongside teachers and pupils in Oriire Local Government Area. Speaking at a thanksgiving service at Antioch Baptist Church, Ogbomoso, she described the seventh week as the most terrifying period of the ordeal, as intensified military air strikes around the kidnappers’ hideout left the captives fearing they would be killed in the bombardment.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

According to Alamu, the military offensive became so severe that the captives momentarily feared the air strikes more than their abductors. This intense military activity also enraged the kidnappers, who had previously raised hopes among the hostages by claiming Governor Seyi Makinde had given assurances of their release before the end of the week.

Tensions peaked when a gang commander summoned Alamu, blaming the government’s actions for frustrating the group and threatening to kill a captive. In a desperate plea, Alamu begged the commander not to harm anyone else, reminding him of the two men from their group who had already been killed. The commander eventually calmed down and asked Alamu how the stalemate could be resolved, prompting her to urge him to make demands that the victims’ families could realistically meet.

The captives faced another terrifying moment when they heard sounds of digging at night, fearing the abductors were preparing graves. However, the situation shifted unexpectedly when the gang ordered them to move camp, threatening to kill the children if they cried out for food. Throughout the ordeal, Alamu’s concerns extended beyond her own safety to the health of her husband and the possibility of not finding him at home. She expressed profound gratitude to God for surviving the 56 days and reuniting with her family.
