INEC Recognises Abdulrahman Mohammed As PDP National Chairman

The Independent National Electoral Commission has recognised Abdulrahman Mohammed as the national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party. The recognition follows recent court decisions and the outcome of the party’s latest convention in Abuja. INEC’s position aligns with a Federal High Court judgment which voided the party’s November 16, 2025 convention in Ibadan and affirmed the Abdulrahman led structure. The commission subsequently updated its records to reflect Mohammed and his team as the authorised PDP leadership. At the recent PDP convention, delegates endorsed Abdulrahman Mohammed and a 22 member National Working Committee through a consensus arrangement. The convention was largely driven by a bloc of the party loyal to the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike. Other national officers returned alongside Mohammed include Samuel Anyanwu as national secretary and several deputies and financial officers. Party insiders say the new leadership has been […]

Lamido says Wike backed caretaker holds key to PDP reconciliation

Former Jigawa State Governor Sule Lamido says genuine reconciliation in the Peoples Democratic Party depends on leaders accepting the Nyesom Wike backed National Caretaker Committee.He made the appeal during a Ramadan Iftar with PDP executives and members in his hometown, Bamaina. Lamido described the caretaker committee, led by Abdulrahman Mohammed, as the only stabilising party structure recognised by the Independent National Electoral Commission.He argued that, without first accepting this body, ongoing peace talks between rival camps would not produce lasting unity. The former governor praised FCT Minister Nyesom Wike as a politically shrewd figure who moved quickly when the tenure of the former National Working Committee expired.He said that by the time the NWC’s term elapsed, the only functional national structure left in the party was the caretaker committee backed by Wike. Lamido acknowledged that many PDP members have political […]

12 Reps dump opposition for APC, ADC ahead of 2027 polls

Twelve members of the House of Representatives have defected from their parties to the ruling All Progressives Congress and the African Democratic Congress as political realignments intensify ahead of the 2027 general elections. The lawmakers, drawn from different geopolitical zones, formally notified the House of their decision in separate letters read during plenary by the Speaker, Tajudeen Abbas. Most of them cited prolonged internal crises, leadership tussles and irreconcilable differences in their former parties as reasons for dumping their platforms. Those who moved to the APC largely came from the Peoples Democratic Party, Labour Party, New Nigeria Peoples Party and other opposition parties that have been battling factional disputes since the last election cycle. Others chose the ADC, which has been positioning itself as a major opposition force and actively courting sitting lawmakers ahead of 2027. Analysts say the latest […]

Tinubu insists new tax laws start January 1

President Bola Tinubu has reaffirmed that Nigeria’s new tax laws will take effect tomorrow, January 1, 2026, despite mounting calls for a delay. He said no substantial issue has been found to justify suspending the reforms, which he described as a once in a generation chance to build a fair and stronger fiscal system.​ Tinubu explained that the new tax laws are not aimed at simply raising taxes but at restructuring the system, harmonising levies and protecting citizens’ dignity while strengthening the social contract.
