Poormanpikin: Political intolerance. Peter Obi must win the next Presidential election.
the odd is against him. He won't even come out second. Atiku will surely get ADC just like Tinubu getting APC. Stop dreaming. Northerners expecially the core Muslim states will never vote him cos they now see him as a religious bigot. Obi scored less than 100k votes in ten northern states in 2023 combined.
What will now be the fate of obi? He might not have a choice but to deputize Atiku.
But many of his followers have said they will not vote for him if he deputize Atiku. Too bad.
Obi knows even in a free and fair primaries devoid of dollar, Atiku will still trash him. The primaries will be the easiest one for Atiku since contesting. He has been meeting with critical stakeholders in the north but obi prefer to be paying eye service to state to donate money and using it for political gain. He cant even convince labour party to join the coalition. Otti the only governor is not ready to join ADC. Build and nurture a party, obidients said no that they will follow obi anywhere he goes. Now he is at cross road
yarimo: Shay ADC is not worth adopting and that is the home state of ADC interin national secretary the hijackers
Those who don't politics are just over hyping ADC. Atiku's pdp faction are the ones that has joined ADC and pdp still remains. Few frings APC joined them. In 2027, pdp will just endorsed Tinubu for president and that is game over. Atiku with the presidential ticket and obi going back to labour or contesting on another platform will get the least votes. If he decides to deputize Atiku then he is finished politically. No pdp governor is ready to join ADC and that speak volumes cos they know it is Atiku arrangement and he will definitely pick the ticket
I sincerely never knew him despite staying here in Abuja…
Happy birthday once again Living legend Seyi
I have noticed that Yoruba rich men don't make niose. Imagine a former world best player, European best, Africa best and utimately a former president attending Seyi vodi birthday. Just look at the caliber of men. That one wey dey always shout money na water no fit ever gather this sophisticated people.
jogojogo: Somebody whose defection was rejected and you are already changing the narration as if the rejecter is the rejected. You obviously lack integrity
you should by now knows ipob members. They always quickly twist talk.
Politicstoday: Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has reinvigorated his awareness to the people of the state of his membership in the ruling Peoples Democratic Party ahead of the 2026 governorship election.
There has been speculation that the governor was moving to the opposition All Progressives Congress after meeting with President Bola Tinubu.
Also, the recent defection of two Osun State senators from the PDP to the APC has heightened the rumoured defection of the governor, as the movement of the senators was described as an advance party for Adeleke.
However, sources have revealed that the governor’s negotiation with top APC politicians to actualise his defection has failed to yield desired results.
It was gathered that some top APC officials, leading the negotiations, have hit a brick wall as the Osun APC group is hellbent on not allowing the governor to join the party.
A chieftain of APC and former Osun State Deputy Governor, Iyiola Omisore, had said the party had rejected the governor’s bid to take membership of APC.
Speaking at the flag-off of the second phase of the dualisation of Osogbo -Ikirun-Kwara boundary road on Monday, Adeleke told residents and party supporters that he remains in the party.
Dismissing rumour over his defection move, Adeleke said, “I remain fully in PDP.”
Adeleke will go down in history as the first governor denied joining opposition in a state. Aregbesola supported him and today they are not in talking time and he has since joined ADC. Adeleke is the real OTP if he remains in pdp. Where is Davido who keep bragging before about is uncle second is socrasant. Money is not everything in politics.
PulaPower: I think Adeleke’s mistake was that he contested under Pdp..
His brother, Deji and the elder brother that died, Isiaka were ACN big stakeholders back in the days. Infact, Isiaka was going to contest for Governor under ACN cuz he already won the party primaries but death occur. If not for Deji, I doubt they would have allowed Adeleke to meet Tinubu at all!
His only saving grace now is Tinubu but I don’t even know how Tinubu wants to balance Osun equation. It’s very dicey!
the way some of you lie effortlessly is just alarming. The late isaika adeleke was a serving senator thou a formidable governorship hopeful. There were still more than a year before party primaries before he died. Stop decieving people.
zoedew: Adeleke will then take his rightful place as leader of the APC in Osun State. He has performed better in office as Governor than Oyetola. Adeleke has by way of infrastructural projects touched the lives of the people than Oyetola did.
Are you from osun or is it because of hatred and bitterness as usual. If he has done so well, why is he begging to join APC. It should be the reverse. He is just an average governor like the fake messaih they wanted to force on Nigerians. He will be the first governor since 1999 to be begging to join opposition party, state wise.
Politicstoday: Adeleke has been rejected here. Ajagunla - Senator representing Osun Central senatorial district Francis Fadahunsi - Senator representing Osun East Senatorial district
do you notice davido has not be bragging about second term of his uncle. He knows the die is cast and only Tinubu can save his family from impeding political disgrace. Imagine a serving governor is been rejected. If those people praise you, just know you are very close to doom. Because they lack political foresight, they will tell you the two senators don't matter. Mumu people.
MufasaLion: A solid businessman but not recommended to emulate for a budding entrepreneur.
This are the real billionaires who don't make niose. Any small thing, money na water. No wonder the Adeleke's didn't give him attention when he went with the musician in osun.
EvilMerodack: Fergie001 has always been sure Obi would return to LP since 1800
Well, now that Nenadi Usman is at the helm and a reconciliation between both parties seems plausible,guess Obi wouldn't have to join ADC anymore
Three Major Presidential candidate gunning for it at last!
Obidients who are mostly igbos are just too emotional. Politics don't resolve around that. Atiku will definitely be the ADC candidate. Obi has now realize that and that is why he keep saying, he is still a member of labour party. Datti identifying with Abure who has been recognized as the authentic chairman, is a calculated move. They have endorsed him for the presidential candidate but he will end up stepping down for obi and run as his vice again. He is clamouring for reconciliation so that it will be easy for obi to come back.
Koralords: Someone posted this one Twitter i thought it's propaganda, datti don free obi? Wonderful
He knows his northerners can't give obi the ADC ticket but obidients who are political neophytes will always think otherwise. Very soon, they will start to insult him cos they don't like truth. Datti was a senator and so he knows the game even better than obi who rode on ojukwu's popularity to become governor. When the tide was against him for reelection, ojukwu have to beg Anambaraians with giant sign post, strategically in some places, raising obi hand and with the caption, my last wish. Same man igbos want to force on Nigerians as the best after fried rice and chicken. It shall not be well with anyone who insulted obi for poor performance and later support him to be president of Nigeria. He even shared 400 cars for some igwes.
sagitariusbaby: This to me looks like a set-up gift to me. We all know Dangote and his style of business, he is never for the people, not once has he ever been. Let's be careful or else we are gonna learn the hard way. I hope competitors spring up to equate his dominance.
I like what he is doing to the marketers who have been cheating the country through subsidy. They decide not to construct refineries. Let them team up together and build one. They are criminals
IdowuRufai: Because they are speaking the truth, most times the cooperates don’t want you to know the truth, they give you what you want to hear and expect journalists to go with their narrative. Nigerians should be grateful to AriseTV for somewhat standing up for the truth.
That is a lie. The owner is a debtor to first bank and he is doing everything to paint them bad. He will surely fail cos Otedola is bigger and not on same level with him.
Davoski001: Sometimes you begin to wonder what goes on in their brain. So he doesn’t have advisers who can tell him, Boss this is wrong , let’s look for another monument or institution? Na wa !
Imagine the foolishness on the part of the governor. How does he want the family of the honoured feel. He should go and ask what Tai solarin did that warrant the school named after him. If he do much love the late king, then he used name government house after him if is not named after any one. I don't support naming government schools after any individual. They should name airport, stadium, meauseum after people.
Actor Kenneth Okonkwo, speaking live on Arise TV's Morning Show, accused the Edo State Governor of exhibiting tribalistic and ethnic bias.
Reacting to recent comments made about Peter Obi, Okonkwo stated: “If Peter Obi were a leader from Hausa land or Yoruba land, this governor would not dare make such a statement.”
His remarks have sparked debate across social and political spaces, with many weighing in on the growing tensions ahead of the 2027 elections.
This living in bondage failed politicians is looking for attention. With is wide mouth.

NAFDAC AND NDLEA WAS SETUP FOR THEM, GLOBAL CRIMINALS USING NIGERIAN PASSPORT! They are simply called Nigerians or Africans!
They will probably be from anambra state. I don't blame them cos obi increased poverty and so his people result to commiting crime all over the world. Obi can never condemn the drug pledders since they are is people.
Amumaigwe: They are worried that Obi, who they hate so much, will be harmed if he does not inform them before coming into their state. What an irony? Obi should keep his itinerary confidential. E get why.
if not that you igbos are hypocrites, you people celebrated when Diri ban Wike a serving minister from going to bayelsea but now because is obi an igbo who hold no position, you are crying.
Newsmills: You are making mouth you can’t do anything is it that Edo is richer or you are afraid of being displaced from a disgusting political food you are enjoying now,empty threats,impressing Aso rock,Obi no be your mate.For your information,a former governor in one of the south south states disallowed late PMB from using a stadium but the same person worked under late President so don’t open your mouth so widely and ignorantly politics need wisdom pray for same.
let him visit Edo this period and try to donate for political reasons again. There are a lot of suffering Anambaraians, he should go to anambra and rescue them.
Amumaigwe: See the characters at the helm of leaderdhip in Edo State. If the two most important political positions are occupied by narrowed minded people like this APC Chairman and the Governor, I am afraid for the opposition in Edo State.
we don't need his chochocho in Edo state. His donations are politically motivated. Why did he not donates to states immediately he left as governor. He should be in anambra to campaign for his candidate.
lonecatt: you are still not saying anything sensible.obi or any Nigerian including you is free to move anywhere and make donations anywhere today tomorrow and forever let that sink into your head and stop these mob justice agbero mentality.
Why are you people not talking about the death caused by his visit. Anambra need him most. Charity they say begins at home.
jmoore: No one accepts to join coalition without accepting terms and conditions.
And it will be the highest form of self-deception to disregard the opinion of the supporters of those involved in the coalition.
If there were no terms and conditions before forming the coalition, then ADC is a big joke.
Obi will only join the coalition if the party zones the ticket to south. That's obvious.
The north don't care if he run away from ADC like he did in pdp. He will still not win. They will just be patient for Tinubu to complete his term and handover power to them back. Who lose, obi and igbos surely. South south will deputize a Northern candidate period.
ozo13: Hahahah.they just want to feed on gullibility of uninformed Nigerians to win election. They should ask them are they going to bring back subsidy of petrol and naira if voted into power. Then they should be asked also where are they going to see the Dollars to do such. One was asked exact same question that day, he started dribbling.trust journalist, they kept asking him to the point it became obvious he got noting new or any solution to offer.he just wanted power to shift to their side to enjoy
I was ashamed of him cos he couldn't suggest a better approach than what Tinubu has done. Rufai just gave him soft landing because he is obidients but he was not really pleased. Am not surprised cos most of his people that insulted him as governor are now his great supporter just because of presidency
atiku4President: Medicine after death. Edo people deserve a better leader than this embarrassment the country's jaundiced judicial system has foisted on them. PO cannot be intimidated. His supporters will respond appropriately.
my governor said the truth. Obi is just too desperate that is why he want publicity every time.
