Anyim: South-East Needs Inter-Regional Alliances to Clinch Presidency

In a separate political development, former Senate President Anyim Pius Anyim has asserted that politicians from the South-East cannot attain the presidency in isolation and must forge solid alliances with other geopolitical zones.

Anyim, who recently transitioned from the PDP to the All Progressives Congress (APC), made this known during an interview with Arise News.

Key takeaways from Anyim’s remarks include:

• The Power of Coalitions: Drawing from his personal political experience, Anyim noted that no single region can secure the presidency without cross-regional backing, leading to his decision to align with the APC.

• Second Term Stance: Anyim further emphasized that President Bola Tinubu should be supported to complete a full two-term tenure before power shifts to other regions, with the ultimate return targeted toward the South-East.

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 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.
