INEC declares Oyebanji winner of Ekiti governorship poll

The Independent National Electoral Commission has declared Governor Biodun Oyebanji of the All Progressives Congress the winner of the Ekiti State governorship election held on Saturday, securing a second term in office. According to the final results announced by the state returning officer, Oyebanji polled a total of 319,224 votes across all 16 local government areas of Ekiti State. His closest rivals trailed by significant margins, confirming what the APC has described as a “clean sweep” at the polls. The declaration was made in the early hours of Sunday at the state collation centre after INEC officials concluded the collation and verification of results from the various local government areas. The exercise followed the close of voting and counting at polling units across the state on Saturday. Oyebanji’s victory confirms continued control of Ekiti State by the APC, four years […]

Primary Elections: Nigerians Now Know You’re Liars, Wike Blasts ADC, NDC

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and former Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, has lambasted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), saying the outcome of their recent presidential primaries has exposed them as “liars” who have been deceiving Nigerians. Speaking in Abuja while reacting to the crisis and protests that trailed the opposition parties’ primaries, Wike said the ADC and NDC had presented themselves as messiahs and claimed they would conduct transparent, data-driven internal elections, only to be engulfed in allegations of manipulation at their first major test. “As small as the NDC is, it cannot hold its primary election without protests,” Wike said, mocking the party for failing to manage its internal processes. He added: “Nigerians now know that you are all liars,” insisting that the crisis showed the parties were no different […]

INEC deadline: Opposition parties rush to submit membership registers

Opposition political parties across Nigeria have embarked on a last minute rush to meet the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) deadline for submitting their membership registers ahead of the 2027 general elections. INEC had extended the final date for the exercise to May 10, 2026, following earlier complaints from parties that the initial window was too tight. Under Section 77(4) of the 2026 Electoral Act, every registered political party is required to submit its membership register to INEC not later than 21 days before the conduct of its primaries. The commission has repeatedly stressed that only members whose names appear in the submitted registers will be eligible to vote or be voted for during party primaries. In the last 48 hours leading up to the deadline, national secretariats of several opposition parties have been busy collating and uploading names from […]

Senate rejects fresh bid to amend 2026 Electoral Act

The Senate has rejected fresh calls to amend the 2026 Electoral Act, asking opposition leaders to channel their grievances through proper legislative procedures. Opposition figures, including Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi and Rotimi Amaechi, had demanded an immediate review of the new law, describing it as anti democratic and skewed in favour of the ruling party ahead of the 2027 elections. They argued that certain sections of the Act undermine electoral transparency and called for the removal of what they termed obnoxious provisions that could weaken the credibility of future polls. Responding, the Senate leadership dismissed the pressure for a hurried amendment and advised the opposition to submit specific proposals and work through the National Assembly’s established processes. Senate leaders maintained that the 2026 Electoral Act had followed due process, including passage by both chambers and assent by President Bola Tinubu, […]

2027 polls: APC, four parties set as 16 others battle candidate crises

With less than a year to the start of candidate submissions for the 2027 general elections, only the ruling All Progressives Congress and four other parties are considered ready, while about 16 others are entangled in leadership and candidate selection crises. The situation follows the release of the 2027 election timetable by the Independent National Electoral Commission, which has intensified pressure on parties to put their houses in order. The APC is seen as the most organised, with President Bola Tinubu widely expected to seek a second term and face little or no internal challenge for the presidential ticket, even though party leaders insist the race remains formally open. A few smaller parties, including some with regional strength, have also begun early consultations and are close to resolving their presidential and governorship choices.​ In contrast, major opposition platforms like the […]

ADC Crisis: Nafiu Bala Declares Self Authentic Chairman

The leadership tussle within the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has deepened as Deputy National Chairman, Nafiu Bala, formally assumed office as the party’s National Chairman, rejecting the authority of former Senate President David Mark. Bala argued that both the Electoral Act and the ADC constitution empower him to succeed the former chairman, Ralph Nwosu, who resigned earlier this year after the party joined an opposition coalition. The coalition later announced Mark as Interim National Chairman. In an interview with The Guardian, Bala accused coalition leaders of attempting to hijack the ADC. “Our former National Chairman voluntarily resigned, and our constitution clearly outlines the transfer of power. I now resume office as the authentic National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress,” Bala said. He added that party leaders and members continued to rally around him. “Those who resigned have stepped aside […]
