Navigating Party Dynamics: Understanding Tinubu’s Role Amidst Ganduje’s Troubles
Navigating Party Dynamics: Understanding Tinubu’s Role Amidst Ganduje’s TroublesIn the intricate tapestry of political maneuvering, the recent drama surrounding the purported suspension of Abdullahi Ganduje, the national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has captured the attention of concerned party stalwarts. Among them, the silence of President Bola Tinubu has raised questions and sparked speculation about his stance on the matter.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
According to APC Publicity Secretary for North-West, Musa Mada, Tinubu’s reticence should not be misconstrued as disinterest. Rather, it reflects a strategic understanding of the internal dynamics within the party. Mada emphasizes that Tinubu’s long-standing commitment to the APC is evident, and his silence should not be interpreted as indifference. Instead, it signifies a recognition that certain issues are best handled within the party’s internal mechanisms.
Mada further asserts that the purported suspension of Ganduje is mere speculation, emphasizing that Tinubu’s focus lies on broader national issues, given his role as a prominent political figure in the country. He suggests that Tinubu’s silence is a testament to his prioritization of pressing national concerns over internal party squabbles.
However, Sylvester Monidafe, another APC chieftain, offers a contrasting perspective. Drawing on his long-standing association with Tinubu, Monidafe highlights the importance of upholding the party’s integrity and Tinubu’s legacy. He underscores Tinubu’s track record of standing firm in the face of political challenges, citing past instances where Tinubu defended the interests of the South West against external pressures.
Monidafe expresses confidence in Tinubu’s commitment to doing the right thing, suggesting that Tinubu’s silence may be strategic, aimed at preserving the party’s cohesion and integrity. While acknowledging the complexities of the situation, Monidafe emphasizes the importance of Tinubu’s leadership in navigating the party through turbulent waters.
Amidst these divergent perspectives, one thing remains clear – the importance of Tinubu’s leadership and the need for strategic decision-making in addressing internal party dynamics. As the APC grapples with internal challenges, Tinubu’s approach will undoubtedly shape the party’s trajectory in the days to come.

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has rejected reports suggesting it may not present candidates in the 2027 general elections in Nigeria.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
In a statement issued on Saturday by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, the ADC described the claims as false, misleading, and intended to cause unnecessary confusion.
The party reaffirmed its commitment to its mission of unseating the All Progressives Congress (APC) through the ballot, stressing that it remains focused on delivering change.
Abdullahi assured that the ADC would field strong and qualified candidates in 2027, adding that the party is not distracted by rumours or political propaganda.
According to the statement, the ADC emphasized that it remains committed to rescuing Nigeria from what it described as the failures of the APC-led government and preventing the emergence of a one-party system.
The party also dismissed suggestions that it faces any legal barrier to participating in the elections, insisting it is fully compliant with the Constitution and the Electoral Act.
It further stated that preparations are already underway nationwide to mobilize Nigerians frustrated with insecurity, economic hardship, and lack of opportunities.
Reaffirming its position, the ADC described itself as a leading opposition force and urged supporters to ignore speculation about its electoral plans, stressing that its focus remains on building a winning structure for 2027
A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Kenneth Okonkwo, has said that any aspirant who leaves the party after failing to secure its presidential ticket is indirectly working for President Bola Tinubu.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Okonkwo made this statement on Saturday during an interview on Channels Television, insisting that such a move amounts to being politically compromised.
He maintained that any presidential hopeful who exits the party simply because they did not get the ticket is not acting in good faith.
His comments come amid growing speculation that former Anambra State governor, Peter Obi, may defect from the ADC to the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC).
He said, “Well, if he leaves, will he now be a mobile squatter? If anyone who doesn’t get the ADC presidential ticket leaves the party for another platform, he is compromised and working for Tinubu.”
Meanwhile, Okonkwo has also accused members of the “City Boy Movement” (CBM) of sacrificing their principles for personal benefit.
In a recent interview on Symfoni TV, he described the group supporting President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid as political opportunists.
He further argued that their alignment reflects what he called dependence on “crumbs” from the presidency.
According to him, the Igbo people have distanced themselves from such political alignment, stressing that some individuals endorsing the President do not represent the collective interest or dignity of Ndigbo.
He said, “The Igbo have rejected them. It is an insult to Ndigbo. We wear our Isiagu because we hunt for our food with dignity, like lions, and eat fresh meat. We don’t scavenge like vultures.”
He further described those seeking political favour through the movement as “political children drinking from the feeding bottle of Tinubu,” adding that he prefers to maintain personal dignity rather than seek relevance through what he termed “rotten crumbs.”
Okonkwo, who has become a prominent opposition voice in recent years, also noted that he has built his livelihood through his skills and talent rather than relying on political patronage.

reports that the news broke on Friday after Bewaji shared a post on Instagram expressing joy over a safe delivery and introducing their newborn son, named Jamal Iremide. Portable later confirmed the arrival on his own social media page, where he thanked Bewaji and celebrated the newest addition to his family. Interestingly, the baby was born on the same day Portable suffered a defeat in a celebrity boxing match against Carter Efe, which ended in a unanimous decision in favour of Carter Efe. Despite the loss in the ring, Portable expressed greater excitement about becoming a father again, saying the moment meant more to him than the fight. He revealed that the child was born while he was still involved in the boxing event. He wrote: “God bless you more, Omoleye Omobewaji mi. Thanks for making me happy. I have given birth, congratulations to me. I thought I would carry a belt, but I carried my child instead. You can buy a belt with money, but you can’t buy a child. “While my wife was in labour, I was fighting. She gave birth to a boy. I wanted a third belt for my children; I already have two. I have given birth, you can have the belt.”
