2027: Tinubu’s ex‑ministers to face stiff battles in home states

Fresh political permutations ahead of the 2027 general elections are pitching some of President Bola Tinubu’s former ministers against powerful forces in their home states. Vanguard reports that at least four ex‑ministers nursing governorship or senatorial ambitions are expected to resign and immediately confront entrenched party structures and sitting governors. The affected states include Kano Abia Bauchi Gombe Kebbi and Adamawa where local dynamics and existing rivalries could complicate their paths to party tickets. In several of these states, incumbent governors and influential bloc leaders are said to be uncomfortable with the growing profiles of the former federal appointees. According to the report, some state party leaders fear that a direct entry of ex‑ministers into the 2027 race could upset delicate zoning arrangements and existing succession understandings. This has raised the prospect of silent feuds between the presidency’s allies and […]

Two NNPP Reps Dump Party for APC Over Leadership Crisis

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in the House of Representatives has gained two new members after NNPP lawmakers Abdulmuminu Jibrin and Sagir Ibrahim Koki from Kano defected over unresolved leadership crises. The Speaker, Abbas Tajudeen, announced their defection at Thursday’s plenary. Jibrin, chair of the House Committee on Housing, resigned from NNPP and the Kwakwasiya movement earlier in the week, citing “irreconcilable differences within the leadership” at state and national levels. Sagir Koki also cited the inability to properly consult and represent his constituency due to party issues.

Sagir Ibrahim Koki, Deputy Chairman of the House Committee on Petroleum Resources (Midstream) and representative of Kano Municipal Federal Constituency, has resigned from the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP).
