PDP BoT Fires Shot: Wike, Fayose, Anyanwu’s Expulsion ‘Long Overdue.
A member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Board of Trustees, Alhaji Fasiu Bakene, has endorsed the expulsion of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike; former Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose; and the party’s former National Secretary, Samuel Anyanwu, describing the decision as a long overdue step to restore discipline within the party.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
According to Nivo News, Bakene faulted the expelled leaders for consistently undermining the PDP despite rising to national prominence through the platform. He argued that their conduct, utterances, and repeated violation of the party’s constitution had weakened the organisation for years.
Speaking in Abeokuta on Tuesday, November 18, Bakene said the affected individuals had “enjoyed demarketing the party,” insisting that their removal would help rebuild confidence and order among members. He added that instead of formally switching allegiance to another political party, they chose to remain in the PDP while openly campaigning for rival interests.
Bakene expressed optimism that the internal disputes plaguing the opposition party would soon be resolved, despite a string of recent defections. The former Ogun State lawmaker maintained that disagreements were not peculiar to the PDP and could be settled amicably, especially under the leadership of the newly elected national chairman.
He commended the organisers of the recent national convention, describing it as a peaceful and well-coordinated exercise that drew a massive turnout of delegates and reaffirmed the party’s internal cohesion. Bakene praised the various sub-committees involved—transportation, protocol, accommodation, publicity, logistics, and others—for delivering what he called a “perfect job.”
Bakene also applauded the emergence of former Minister of Special Duties and Intergovernmental Affairs, Kabiru Turaki, as the new national chairman, noting that his administrative experience and political capacity would help reposition the PDP ahead of the 2027 elections. He expressed confidence that Turaki’s leadership would steer the party toward electoral success.
Despite its current challenges, Bakene said the PDP remained capable of stabilising itself and reclaiming its place as a formidable opposition force before the next general polls.

“‘He Will Outlive You Like Trump!’ – Obidient Movement Warns Threats Against Peter Obi”.
The Obidient Movement North Central has issued a stern warning to anyone attacking or threatening the life of former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
The movement cautioned that, similar to former U.S. President Donald Trump, Obi will outlive those plotting against him.
This message was conveyed in a statement titled “Warning to Those Attacking or Threatening Peter Obi,” shared with DAILY POST on Wednesday by the National Coordinator of the Movement, Yunusa Tanko.
The statement urged Obi’s detractors to reconsider their actions and warned of the grave consequences their threats could have for Nigeria.
It reads in part: “We have taken time to investigate the events in Edo State, including what led to them, those responsible, their threats, and potential next moves. That is why we did not issue an immediate statement.
“Now, with a clear understanding of what happened, we, the Obidient Movement of the North Central Zone, issue this warning to those attempting to turn Nigeria into another Somalia by provoking millions of peace-loving Obidient Movement members worldwide through threats or attacks against our principal, H.E. Mr. Peter Gregory Obi.
“Let it be known that just as Trump survived every attack during his campaigns, won the presidency in a historic landslide, and continues to counter evil, so too will Peter Gregory Obi outlive all those who wish him harm. He will go on to win the 2027 presidential election decisively and fulfill his God-given mission of rescuing Nigeria from the chaos it has been subjected to. This purpose is ordained and must be achieved.”

“2027 Elections: IGP Disu Issues Strict Warning To Police Against Partisanship!”.
As the 2027 general elections draw near, the newly appointed Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Tunji Disu, has emphasized to officers that their duty to the nation is now more critical and non-negotiable.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Disu highlighted that the credibility of the electoral process, the strength of Nigeria’s democracy, and public confidence will largely depend on the conduct of the Nigeria Police Force, which serves as the lead agency for election security.
He made the remarks at the inaugural conference for strategic police leaders, held at the Peacekeeping Conference Centre in Abuja on Wednesday.
The IGP stressed that police officers must uphold the law, act impartially, demonstrate professionalism, and maintain strict neutrality in all election-related operations.
“We will ensure that the electoral process is safe and secure before, during, and after the elections. Our responsibility includes protecting democratic institutions, election officials, voters, and critical infrastructure. Every Nigerian must be able to exercise their civic rights freely, peacefully, and without fear or intimidation,” Disu said.
He added, “Crowd management and public order duties will be carried out with restraint, proportionality, and full respect for human rights and the law. When the use of force is unavoidable, it must always be lawful, measured, and accountable.
“We will coordinate closely with the Armed Forces, other security agencies, and the intelligence community to deliver a seamless and unified election security framework. However, the Nigeria Police Force will retain clear leadership and command responsibility throughout the process.
“Let me be very clear: there will be zero tolerance for partisanship, misconduct, or abuse of authority. Any officer found compromising neutrality, violating electoral laws, or acting outside approved rules will face swift and decisive consequences, including prosecution where necessary. There will be no exceptions and no excuses.”
Thank you for your response. ✨
