The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) wastes no time, promptly restoring the leadership of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) on its official portal. This decisive move follows a Supreme Court ruling that dismantles a contentious Court of Appeal directive, significantly strengthening the faction loyal to Senator David Mark as the party navigates its internal power struggle ahead of 2027.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission tightens its grip on former CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele. High Court Justice Hamza Muazu orders Jim Obazee and Police Commissioner Eloho Okpoziakpo to appear, testifying as prosecution witnesses in the ongoing $6.23 million fraud trial. Their testimony is pivotal, linking Emefiele to the alleged forgery and abuse of office.
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo delivers a scathing verdict on Nigeria's leadership, asserting that any government failing to secure its citizens forfeits its right to exist. He critiques President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's handling of the ECOWAS crisis and dismisses NNPC refineries as beyond repair.
African Democratic Congress chieftain Ladan Salihu declares the ruling All Progressives Congress will fail the integrity and credibility test in the 2027 general elections. He asserts President Bola Tinubu's government faces overwhelming public anger and frustration. Salihu also ramps up calls for INEC Chairman Prof. Joash Amupitan's resignation, citing alleged bias.
A People’s Democratic Party (PDP) faction, led by Kabiru Tanimu Turaki (SAN), engages the African Democratic Congress (ADC), sparking intense speculation. This move is not a full-blown alliance but a calculated exploration, a strategic dance to gain leverage ahead of the 2027 general elections. Political observers see it as a powerful signal in Nigeria's fluid political landscape.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) rolls out its comprehensive timetable for the 2027 general elections, setting a grueling primary schedule and a steep N100 million price tag for its presidential nomination form. This move instantly sharpens the focus on the financial muscle required for top aspirants in the race.
