Published

on

African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate Omoyele Sowore has fired back at Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) candidate Donald Duke, declaring that his political ambition is rooted in systemic revolution rather than the pursuit of conventional privileges.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Sowore’s fiery response came after Duke expressed uncertainty during a recent interview over whether the activist was actually contesting the 2027 presidential election, though he praised Sowore as an unyielding “voice of conscience”.

Key highlights from Sowore’s explosive comeback include:

  • Confirmed on the Ballot: Sowore firmly cleared up any ambiguity, pointing out that his name proudly sits on the final INEC list as the AAC presidential flagbearer, right alongside Duke for the PRP.

  • Rejecting the Status Quo: Responding to the political establishment’s confusion, Sowore explained that his campaign isn’t driven by a hunger for government perks, special appointments, or access to the national treasury.

  • The Ultimate Goal: The activist emphasized that the AAC is running to fundamentally dismantle the current political order that continues to enrich a tiny elite while impoverishing ordinary citizens.

Sowore made it clear that his unorthodox approach to politics is entirely intentional, signaling a fierce battle ahead for the 2027 presidency.

THE ULTIMATE DOWN-STAND: Rival Jigawa ADC Camps Bow To Atiku, Sign Pact To Bury Legal Hatchet!

Published

on

The two warring factions of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Jigawa State have finally agreed to bury the hatchet and put an end to their prolonged legal battles over the party’s governorship ticket, following a high-level intervention led by party heavyweight Atiku Abubakar.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

The breakthrough comes after weeks of intense friction within the state chapter over the primary elections and the official candidate list. During a reconciliation meeting convened by Atiku, ADC National Chairman Senator David Mark, and other national leaders, the factions were directed to withdraw all pending lawsuits and throw their weight behind the candidates already recognized and published by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Key details of the reconciliation include:

  • The Core Dispute: The legal showdown involved camps led by Senator Sabo Muhammad Nakudu and Hon. Bashir Adamu Jimbo. Nakudu’s camp had challenged candidate uploads, while Jimbo’s group contested Nakudu’s eligibility over alleged primary irregularities.

  • Mutual Agreement: Both leaders formally accepted the peace terms and signed an agreement to withdraw their respective cases covering governorship, running mate, and legislative slots.

  • A Call for Unity: Hailing the resolution, Atiku emphasized that while political competition is natural, true strength lies in a party’s capacity to rise above division, urging all members to unite for the collective task ahead.

With the internal legal hurdles cleared, the ADC leadership in Jigawa State has reaffirmed its commitment to moving forward as a united front with mutual trust and shared purpose.

NO GRASSROOTS, NO VICTORY! Wike Blasts Desperate Politicians, Spills Hard Truth On 2027 Rigging!.

Published

on

Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike has revealed that a fresh, undisclosed strategy is being brewed to counter opposition parties ahead of the 2027 general elections.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Wike made this disclosure following an extensive inspection tour of various infrastructure projects across Abuja, including Road S1 in Kaura District, Collector Road C2 in Life Camp, Arterial Road N16 in Gwarinpa, the IBB Golf Course, and the Gudu project near the Apo Legislative Quarters.

Revisiting the 2023 presidential election, Wike defended the G5 governors’ political maneuvers, explaining that they strategically shifted support away from PDP candidate Atiku Abubakar—whom they viewed as the primary threat—by allowing Labour Party’s Peter Obi to capture votes in the traditionally PDP-dominated South-South.

Key takeaways from his address include:

  • The 2023 Strategy: Wike maintained that the bloc intentionally diluted Atiku’s regional stronghold, dismissing claims of rigging in Rivers State and noting that no opponent ever presented tribunal evidence proving the Labour Party won the state.

  • Tackling Threats: He asserted that Peter Obi’s strength was largely a social media phenomenon, whereas Atiku posed the true political challenge at the time.

  • The Reality of Rigging: Emphasizing grassroots backing, Wike bluntly stated, “You cannot rig an election where you are not popular. You cannot! If you try that, then you see what happens; people will resist it.”

As political alignments shift toward 2027, the FCT Minister has kept his cards close to his chest, refusing to let the full details of his new political blueprint out of the bag.
