Tinubu may win 22 states in 2027 says Sowunmi

Former PDP chieftain Segun Sowunmi has said President Bola Tinubu could win as many as 22 states in the 2027 presidential election. Sowunmi made the remark while speaking about Tinubu’s political chances ahead of the next general election. He said the President still has strong support in parts of the country and could perform well if he maintains his current political structure. He also noted that election outcomes often depend on campaign strategy, coalition building and voter turnout. According to him, Tinubu’s chances will improve if his supporters remain united and active across the states. The comments come amid growing political discussions about the 2027 race. Different political figures have continued to predict how the contest may go, even though campaigning has not officially begun. Sowunmi’s statement has drawn attention because of the wide gap between the ruling party’s supporters […]

APC, ADC, PDP test strength in Ekiti gov election

The All Progressives Congress (APC), African Democratic Congress (ADC), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and 12 other parties are testing their strength today as Ekiti State holds its 2026 governorship election. Incumbent Governor Biodun Oyebanji of the APC is seeking re-election, facing a major challenge from PDP candidate Wole Oluyede and ADC flagbearer Dare Bejide, as the three parties battle for over one million registered votes across 16 local government areas. Analysts see the poll as a key test of APC’s grip on Ekiti and of the opposition’s ability to rally discontented voters ahead of future contests in the South-West, with the ADC also looking to prove it is more than a “noisemaker” after being tipped for its first real electoral test in Osun and Ekiti. Party leaders from APC, ADC and PDP have expressed confidence about victory, with all three […]

Abdulsalami: I told Obasanjo not to contest 1999 presidency

Former Head of State, General Abdulsalami Abubakar (retd.), has disclosed that he advised former President Olusegun Obasanjo not to contest the 1999 presidential election after Obasanjo's release from detention in 1998. When Obasanjo came to see Abdulsalami after his release, Abdulsalami advised him point-blank to abandon the idea of contesting the presidential race. Abdulsalami told him to go home, thank God he was still alive after four years of detention, and forget about becoming President. During the same meeting, Abdulsalami also talked Obasanjo out of filing a lawsuit against the Federal Government over his wrongful imprisonment, warning him that court processes are uncertain. Instead, Abdulsalami offered to explore compensation for the collapse of Obasanjo's business during his years in detention, and Obasanjo agreed not to pursue litigation. Abdulsalami described the encounter as forthright, stating that Obasanjo agreed to think about […]

SGF Akume explains why North-South presidential power rotation was conceived

Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, has revealed that Nigeria's North-South presidential power rotation arrangement emerged from consultations among political leaders seeking to heal divisions created by the annulment of the June 12, 1993 presidential election. Akume, a founding member of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), said the decision was reached after extensive deliberations by party leaders who believed a rotational presidency would promote national unity, inclusion and political stability. At one key meeting, the agenda included two main items: power shift and the PDP's presidential candidature. It was a tough argument before the rotational presidency issue was agreed upon, but leaders eventually conceded because they recognized the June 12 annulment had complicated the entire situation. The arrangement was finally adopted to alternate power between the North and the South. Akume explained this decision was adopted in […]

2027: Obi–Kwankwaso Bid Faces Northern Resistance

Moves to float a joint 2027 presidential ticket featuring Peter Obi and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso are already running into stiff resistance from key northern stakeholders. While support groups have been promoting an Obi–Kwankwaso alliance under the African Democratic Congress (ADC) or a new platform, many northern leaders say they remain unconvinced about the project and its chances. Northern elders and youth groups argue that Obi still suffers a trust deficit in parts of the region, with some politicians repeatedly linking him to alleged sympathy for the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) – a charge his camp has consistently denied. They also insist that his 2023 performance in core northern states shows he has a lot of ground to cover despite strong youth enthusiasm and social media visibility. There are also complaints that the proposed platform for the alliance is […]

Tambuwal steps down from Senate race, backs ex-commissioner

Former Governor of Sokoto State, Senator Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, has stepped down from the 2027 Sokoto South Senatorial race. The ex-speaker confirmed he would no longer seek re-election to the Senate, despite earlier indications that he would be on the ballot. Tambuwal, who recently resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party and aligned with the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has instead thrown his weight behind former commissioner Aminu Bala Bodinga. Bodinga, a long-time ally, served in Tambuwal’s cabinet during his time as governor and is now being positioned as his preferred successor for the Sokoto South seat. In a message shared by his media team, Tambuwal said his decision followed wide consultations with political associates and constituents. He explained that he chose to step aside to allow “fresh energy” to emerge, while still offering guidance and support from behind the scenes. […]

2027 presidency: Jonathan’s declaration sparks stir

Former President Goodluck Jonathan has stirred the 2027 presidential race after declaring that he will “consult widely” before deciding whether to return to contest, a statement that has sparked intense reactions across Nigeria’s political landscape. Jonathan made the comments while addressing members of a support group, “Coalition for Jonathan 2027,” who visited him at his Abuja office to urge him to run in the next election. The group claimed to have a nationwide structure and millions of supporters ready to back his comeback, insisting that his experience and temperament are needed to stabilise the country. In response, Jonathan thanked them for their confidence but cautioned that presidential elections are “serious national business,” adding that he would not take any decision lightly. He stressed that Nigeria’s most urgent needs remain peace, credible elections and responsible leadership, and urged young people to […]

2027 polls: Supreme Court to decide PDP, ADC fate today

The Supreme Court will today deliver key judgments that will decide the fate of the Peoples Democratic Party and the African Democratic Congress ahead of the 2027 general elections. The apex court is set to rule on four appeals linked to leadership crises tearing through the two opposition parties. In the case of the PDP, the appeals centre on the validity of the party’s national convention held in Ibadan, Oyo State, on November 15 and 16, 2025. A faction led by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar is asking the court to uphold the convention and its decisions, while rival groups insist due process was not followed. Previous rulings from lower courts faulted the PDP for obtaining conflicting orders from courts of equal rank over its internal dispute. One Court of Appeal decision described the party’s actions as an abuse of […]

JUST IN: Supreme Court to hear appeals on PDP leadership dispute on April 22

The Supreme Court has fixed April 22 for the hearing of two appeals filed by the Kabiru Turaki‑led leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) challenging recent judgments on the party’s national leadership dispute. A five‑member panel of the apex court headed by Justice Mohammed Garba set the date on Tuesday while ruling on applications seeking accelerated hearing. The court granted the requests, allowing a departure from its usual rules and abridging the time within which the respondents must file their briefs. Under the timetable, the respondents have five days to file their briefs of argument, while the appellants are to file any reply briefs within two days. The court then adjourned until April 22 for substantive hearing of the two appeals. The Turaki group is appealing two March 9, 2026 Court of Appeal judgments which affirmed earlier decisions of […]
