Taraba State Governor Agbu Kefas yesterday announced the All Progressives Congress (APC) Deputy National Women Leader Zainab Ibrahim as his running mate for the 2027 governorship poll, dropping Deputy Governor Aminu Alkali.

Speaking at the meeting, Kefas described Ibrahim as a tested party loyalist whose experience in grassroots mobilization and national politics would strengthen the administration’s vision for the state.

He said: “She is a loyal party woman, a bridgebuilder and a tireless voice for the vulnerable. “Our campaign will be built on continuity, security and prosperity, and I am confident that her experience and commitment will complement our development agenda.”

Political observers and party insiders say the choice of Ibrahim is a strategic calculation designed to achieve political balance across the state while expanding the party’s reach among key voter demographics.

fergie001:
Appeal Court okayed INEC's appeal but on technical grounds.
The Court held that Youth Party lacked the locus to institute same as it didn't disclose any injury suffered.

In Summary,
1. Membership Registers are exclusive internal affairs of a political party.

2. Registration into a political party is continuous

3. If you don't submit your membership register before 21 days, you can field candidiates, vote and be voted for.

4. Parties are to determine their mode of primary: consensus, direct or indirect

Wadoboy:
Different Strokes for different folks.

It depends, like me Party is supreme. Gov. Ukodo and his Oga is what we are all voting in Delta State.

But some people sha, dem fit switch alliance on that day of presidential election.

Human defers, trust nobody.

Kemical23:
they are not fighting corruption rather they are just fighting their enemies....

If they want to fight corruption then almost 98 percent of the leaders in this this country has one or two corruption charges including all the security forces.....

Wadoboy:
Based in Lasgidi, am from Wado City (Orere Urhobo)

And you, Bauchi??

Wadoboy:
I like your analysis. No time to hurl insult.

Kudos

kafeii123:
i completely agree with you on this. Tuggar only got lucky to become foreign affairs minister..he was not really a politician beforehand. So his weight is in abuja..he shd hv gone for senate 1st.

Eriokanmi:
For SPDC to have sold all their onshore stakes to the Renaissance Africa, I knew Nigeria had really collapsed under Tinubu. The tax credit would now go to who...Shell that had sold almost everything to Renaissance ? Let's see how it goes. What baffles me is the way Tinubu's mypic followers are being deceived each time.

mrksquare:
F

Majority of ijaw votes in Delta State. Not the entirety of ijaw land.

Tompolo is insignificant beyond Delta State.

Wadoboy:
Thanks bro for reminding me about that man.

If na money dem take dey win some primary election, the guy for Win.

Bala Wunti is so close to Tantita Security Services, I know for sure.

I wonder with all the dollars, he couldn't win the primary election?


Enlighten me more bro

Wadoboy:
That's politics, the APC candidate is a former governor, so he is likely doing a 1 term.

So everybody wants him.

Tuggar puts on a good fight

AMINDA:
You captured it succinctly. Several examples exists. Elrufai and Uba Sani. Ganduje and Abba Kabir. He attempted Shettima and Zullum but failed. Akume and Allia. Reno Omokri, Daniel Bwala. The list go on and on. This is why he himself is very suspicious and always paranoid.

fergie001:
Only OUK will return for APC
Abaribe will beat Ikonne

Atiku doesn’t think he can win. He’s just very fond of running. He’s a professional runner and failure emeritus.

Former Senator representing Gombe North Senatorial District and ex-Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Usman Bayero Nafada, has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). He cited the party’s lingering internal crisis and leadership disputes.

Nafada, also a former PDP governorship candidate in Gombe State, announced his decision in a resignation letter dated July 12, 2026, addressed to the Chairman of the PDP in Nafada East Ward, Nafada Local Government Area of Gombe State.

The letter, seen by LEADERSHIP, was acknowledged by the ward chairman on July 13, 2026.

In the letter titled “Letter of Resignation from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP)”, Nafada said his decision followed a comprehensive review and assessment of recent developments within the opposition party.

“Following a comprehensive review and assessment of recent political developments within the PDP, particularly the internal crises which has led to factionalization and conflicting claims of leadership,” he wrote.

The former senator stated that he was resigning from the party with immediate effect. “I hereby write formally to notify you of my resignation from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) with immediate effect,” the letter read.

Despite his decision to leave, Nafada expressed appreciation to the PDP for providing him with the platform through which he built his political career over the past two decades.

“I wish to appreciate the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for providing me with the platform upon which I build a solid political structure for the past two decades. I remain deeply grateful to all for the trust, support and opportunities accorded to me.”

Nafada served as Speaker of the Gombe State House of Assembly, Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives between 2007 and 2011, and later represented Gombe North Senatorial District in the Senate. He also flew the PDP flag in the 2019 Gombe State governorship election after previously serving in the National Assembly under both the ANPP and APC before aligning with the PDP.

His resignation came barely a day after the National APC Chairman, Nentawe Yilwatda, paid him a courtesy visit at his residence alongside Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya of Gombe State, the APC’s 2027 governorship candidate, Dr Jamil Isyaku Gwamna, and Arc. Yunusa Yakubu.

After the visit, Nentawe said their discussions focused on unity, peace, stability, and the future of Gombe State, stressing that leaders have a shared responsibility to work together regardless of political affiliation. He added that the progress of Gombe State must always come before partisan considerations, while reaffirming their commitment to building bridges that would strengthen democracy and advance the state’s development.

Nafada, however, is yet to officially announce his next political destination or formally declare for any party, despite the indications that he may be heading to the ruling All Progressives Congress

Eriokanmi:
Dynamics have changed greatly. This is 2026, not 2023. Check northerners who had been speaking against Obi and tell me which party they pay allegiance to. You don't expect me to support obi and be praising tinubu. That's the beauty of democracy. My blood brother is apc, you see? A lot that had happened in 2023 which had swayed some voters towards a particular candidat will totally change in 2027. If you said I'd do abc and im capable of achieving something due to my experience but you didnt just fail but failed woefully, those who trusted your word and voted you won't do the same again.

Eriokanmi:
So, are you still in 2023? Is Kwakwanso still in his former party today? You'll see shocking drama, don't worry. It's time for the north to pay Kwakwanso back for his loyalty, especially with the single term agenda. It's his turn after obi. Check those attacking obi among northerners. They pay allegiance to the apc, which is normal. Everyone will talk in support of their party. Even if Kwakwanso popularity or relevance doesn't go beyond Kano according to you, their votes can conveniently swallow 3 states votes in the south but I see him winning beyond Kano. Fingers crossed

Eriokanmi:
I'm not surprised. He's an apc apologist. He's looking for a position under Tinubu when his tenure ends as the ACF leader . His associates once made this move but it didn't work out. Everyone is looking for what to eat.

What political relevance has he in the north?Kwakwanso will take care of him. Iwofa lenu.

fergie001:
It doesn't Sir

fergie001:
Very apt and in order.
However, there is a possibility you might lose at the SC.

Eriokanmi:
This noise maker again. Keyamo has lost it. When a human rights activist never see moni or position, you no go know him real self

This same guy needs to answer a question why the scanner at the arrival isnt working. I was ashamed to see this

happney65:
I

He didn't have any of them in 2023 and he beat the APC handsdown for his reelection and he will do the same again in 2027

bestman09:
Which defeat?
He is already done his second term and we residents are proud of his achievements and will support whoever he supports.

None of the people in this picture is with Governor Makinde anymore.

The National Secretary of the Seyi Makinde-backed and Turaki faction of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Taofeek Arapaja, has dumped the party.

Following his resignation from the party, Arapaja met with the Oyo State All Progressives Congress, APC governorship candidate, Sharafadeen Alli ahead of his defection to the APC.

Arapaja had reportedly met with President Bola Tinubu as consultations over his proposed defection into the APC.

He is a former deputy governor of Oyo State and National Deputy Chairman (South) of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

At the time of filing this report, Governor Makinde has not made any comment on the development.

christejames:
This one wants to contest the governorship by all means unfortunately the contest is between Wadada and Former IG of Police...

David Umbugadu has unceremoniously schemed himself out by his uncalculated defection to the APC initially.
