PoliticsBattle Line Has Been Drawn – Jibrin Isah Dares Kogi Gov After Losing Senate Retu by Ofunaofu(op): 10:58am On May 19
Kogi East Senator, Jibrin Isah, has openly challenged Kogi State Governor, Ahmed Usman Ododo, following his loss in the All Progressives Congress (APC) senatorial primary election.

Speaking after the outcome of the primary, Isah alleged that the process was marred by serious irregularities and manipulation.

He claimed that electoral officials failed to show up in several wards across Kogi East, preventing voting from taking place in many areas.

According to him, this situation was not accidental but a deliberate attempt to frustrate his supporters and influence the final result of the exercise.


The senator further accused government agents of hijacking electoral materials meant for the conduct of the primaries.

According to Daily Post, he insisted that many party members were denied the opportunity to participate, especially in areas where voting materials and officials were absent.



He described the development as unfair and inconsistent with democratic principles within the party.

Isah stated that he had remained loyal to the APC leadership and the state governor, adding that he was surprised by what he described as political betrayal.

He questioned why he was being sidelined despite his contributions to the party and development projects he said he had executed across Kogi East.

In a more confrontational tone, the senator declared that “the battle line has been drawn” between him and the governor.


He further alleged that Governor Ododo acted against him due to fears that he intended to contest the governorship seat in the future.

Isah concluded by stating that, with the latest developments, he was now prepared to contest the governorship position against Governor Ododo when the opportunity arises, signaling a deepening political rift within the APC in Kogi State.

PoliticsMeshed In Efcc’s Multibillion-naira Fraud Probe, Yahaya Bello Clinches APC Senat by Ofunaofu(op): 10:10pm On May 18
Mr Bello polled a total of 72,349 votes to defeat his challenger, Ibrahim Yakubu Adoke, who polled 315 votes.


Yahaya Bello, a former Kogi State governor, has emerged as the senatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress despite his unresolved multi-billion naira corruption case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Mr Bello was declared winner of the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary election for the Kogi Central Senatorial District on Monday.

Announcing the result of the primary election, the Returning Officer, Sadiq Mohammed, who monitored the exercise, said Mr Bello polled a total of 72,349 votes to defeat his challenger, Ibrahim Yakubu Adoke, who polled 315 votes, while Momoh Yusuf Obaro, the third contender, polled 188 votes.

Mr Bello secured thousands of votes across five local government areas. The former governor polled 18,341 in Adavi, 10,298 in Ajaokuta, 5,146 in Ogori, 8,943 in Okehi, and 29,621 in Okene.

With Monday’s victory, the former governor, who is enmeshed in a N190 billion trial by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), is set to vie for the senatorial seat in the next election.

Mr Bello is charged alongside Umar Oricha and Abdulsalami Hudu with a 16-count charge bordering on alleged property fraud to the tune of N110 billion.

Also, before Justice Emeka Nwite of the Federal High Court, Mr Bello is facing a 19-count charge of N80.2 billion fraud and money laundering

Tinubu Came To Steal, Kill And Destroy” – VeryDarkMan Reacts To Oyo School Abduction

Social media commentator VeryDarkMan has heavily criticised President Bola Tinubu following the abduction of students and teachers from a secondary school in Oyo State.
The activist described Tinubu as a “failure” on security and economic matters, sparking heated reactions online.

Social media commentator VeryDarkMan has reacted strongly to the recent kidnapping incident involving students and teachers in Oyo State, blaming President Bola Tinubu’s administration for worsening insecurity across the country.


Recall that gunmen reportedly invaded a secondary school in the Ahoro-Esinele community in Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State and abducted several students alongside the school principal during school hours.

Reacting in a viral video, VeryDarkMan expressed frustration over the growing boldness of kidnappers, questioning the effectiveness of the country’s security system.

According to him, the incident reflects the current state of insecurity under the Tinubu-led government.

“Tinubu is just here to st3@l, with them kpai us and destroy what we have all worked for in the years,” he said.

He further added:

“Tinubu is a fa!lure, Tinubu is that reference in the Bible that says the devil is coming to st£al, kp@! and d£stroy. How k!dnapp£rs have gotten the audacity to go into a church school to carry students and teachers. Where’re all the policemen and securities in the state?”


The social commentator also criticised the president’s leadership capacity, claiming the administration lacks solutions to Nigeria’s economic and security challenges.

“Tinubu doesn’t have the answers because his bra!n is old, he can’t move Nigeria forward, economy wise, security wise, nothing,” he stated.

Ibadanfarmroad:

What is this Ngige thing you are bringing into this discussion

How are they the same?

Ngige’s situation and Fubara’s situation are worlds apart.

Was a state of emergency declared in Anambra? Were all democratic institutions suspended for six months in clear violation of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria? Was the governor stripped of powers while unelected forces took over governance? No.

Ngige was kidnapped during a political crisis, condemnable, yes but Anambra’s democratic structures still stood. Courts functioned, the Assembly existed, and constitutional order remained intact.

Fubara’s case is different entirely. Here was a governor who decamped from PDP to APC, the ruling party seeking political protection, only to end up more isolated, publicly humiliated, stripped politically, and denied even the dignity expected of an elected governor.

And another thing: did Ngige decamp to the ruling party begging for survival only to still get denied a reelection ticket afterward? No. So how exactly are the two scenarios remotely comparable?

The irony is that instead of addressing the constitutional concerns and obvious political humiliation, you will be shouting Obidients because they have no actual argument left.

PoliticsFresh Loan: ADC Accuses FG Of Running ‘Ponzi Economy’ by Ofunaofu(op): 11:29pm On May 17
The African Democratic Congress, ADC, yesterday, accused President Bola Tinubu’s administration of running what it described as a ‘Ponzi economy’ after the Federal Government moved to secure another $1.25 billion World Bank loan despite Nigeria’s growing public debt estimated at about N159.28 trillion.

The opposition party said the fresh loan request has further fuelled concerns over the country’s rising debt exposure at a time millions of Nigerians are struggling with soaring food prices, inflation, unemployment, business failures and worsening living conditions, nearly two years after the government introduced sweeping economic reforms.

ADC’s National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, in a statement, yesterday, said the government had continued to borrow heavily without visible improvements in the lives of ordinary citizens.

Abdullahi said: “This is why the ADC says the Tinubu administration is running a Ponzi economy, where new loans are constantly being taken to service old debts and cover fiscal failures, while ordinary Nigerians are left to carry the burden.

“At this point, Nigerians must ask a simple question: if this government keeps borrowing trillions of naira every few months, why are Nigerians getting poorer, and why is life getting harder for the majority?”

According to ADC, Nigeria’s rising debt profile has failed to produce noticeable improvements in critical sectors or ease the economic pressure facing households and businesses across the country.

It said: “Today, Nigeria’s total public debt has risen to about N159.28 trillion, yet food prices continue to rise daily, electricity tariffs are increasing, the naira remains weak, businesses are shutting down, insecurity is spreading, and millions of young Nigerians remain unemployed.

“Families are cutting down on meals, manufacturers are struggling to survive, and small businesses are collapsing under the weight of inflation and poor economic conditions.”

The ADC also raised concerns over the Federal Government’s projected debt servicing obligations for 2026, warning that resources needed for development could be swallowed by loan repayments.

Abdullahi said: “It is noteworthy that President Tinubu himself has declared that Nigeria will spend about $11.6 billion, over N15 trillion, on debt servicing alone in 2026.

“In simple terms, trillions of naira that should have gone into roads, hospitals, schools, electricity, security, agriculture, and job creation will instead go into paying creditors and servicing old loans.

“Each time they want to borrow money, this government invents a new acronym. From armour to reset, hope, or spin, these are merely different labels for the same pretext to continue borrowing without any recourse to measurable impacts on the lives of Nigerians.

“The government removed fuel subsidy, devalued the Naira, increased electricity tariffs, and imposed painful economic policies on citizens, promising that temporary sacrifice would lead to long-term recovery.”

“Instead, Nigerians have continued to suffer one of the worst cost-of-living crises in recent history, while the government continues to pile on more debts.

“The ADC is equally concerned that the National Assembly, which should serve as checks on executive excesses, has been reduced to a mere rubber stamp, approving massive borrowing requests with little resistance or serious public scrutiny.

“Nigeria cannot continue mortgaging the future of unborn generations simply to keep the current administration politically afloat.

“At some point, somebody will pay for all this borrowing, and sadly, ordinary Nigerians are already paying through hunger, inflation, unemployment, business closures, and a collapsing standard of living,” Abdullahi said

My memory served me right. The difference is that you conveniently skipped the part where Fubara was effectively removed from office during the illegal six-month state of emergency in Rivers State, with democratic institutions suspended in clear violation of the Constitution.

You claimed to be vast in history and current political affairs in Rivers State, yet you ignored that major detail just to force a comparison with Ngige and Ladoja.

Yes, Ngige was kidnapped. Yes, Ladoja was impeached. Those were shameful moments in our democracy. But don’t pretend what happened to Fubara isn’t unprecedented in the Fourth Republic.

NDC appoints Osa Director as national publicity secretary, names Ekele, Ibrahim deputies
The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has appointed veteran journalist, lawyer and pro-democracy advocate, Osa Director, as its new National Publicity Secretary as part of efforts to strengthen the party’s communication structure ahead of future political engagements.


The party also announced the appointment of seasoned media professionals, Peter Agbo Ekele and Lawal Sabo Ibrahim, as Deputy National Publicity Secretaries.

In a statement issued by the National Working Committee on May 16, 2026, the NDC said the appointments underscore its commitment to building a robust communication framework anchored on professionalism, integrity and democratic values.


According to the party, Director brings decades of experience in journalism, law, media management and democratic advocacy to his new role.


He gained national recognition during Nigeria’s pro-democracy struggle as a journalist with TELL Magazine, one of the country’s leading media platforms during the military era. The party noted that his activism and commitment to press freedom led to his detention under the late General Sani Abacha’s military government.



Director, who is also a co-founder and former Editor-in-Chief of INSIDER WEEKLY Magazine, has made significant contributions to investigative journalism and public accountability in Nigeria. He later established the law firm, Osa Director & Co., expanding his influence in legal practice and public affairs.
The NDC highlighted his academic and professional achievements, noting that he holds qualifications in Biochemistry, Management, Law, Media and Communications, and Corporate Governance, alongside certifications from institutions including Cambridge University and Leeds Metropolitan University.


On Peter Agbo Ekele, the party described him as a respected journalist and editor with over a decade of experience in Nigeria’s media industry.


A graduate of English Language from Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Ekele has held several editorial positions, including Reporter, News Editor, Group News Editor and Editor, in media organisations such as New Nigerian, National Accord and LEADERSHIP Newspapers

El-Rufai Looking More And More Like Political Prisoner He Loses Freedom And Gain Sympathy—Baba-Ahmed


‎In a recent statement via his official X account, the national chairman of the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP), Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed has criticized the continued detention of former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, saying the situation is beginning to look politically motivated.

‎"So it is possible for the judicial process to keep a citizen in detention from one place to another, facing multiple charges from different sources. Ad infinatum. El-Rufai is looking more and more like a political prisoner. He loses freedom and gains sympathy. Govt loses case and cause," he wrote.

‎In his post, Baba-Ahmed questioned the judicial process that has kept El-Rufai facing different legal battles and repeated detention, he argued that the former governor is being moved from one case to another without gaining freedom despite several court proceedings.

‎According to him, the development is creating a public impression that El-Rufai is no longer being treated like an ordinary citizen facing trial, but like a political target, he warned that prolonged detention and multiple charges from different authorities could damage public confidence in the justice system.


‎Baba-Ahmed stated that the longer the situation continues, the more sympathy El-Rufai may receive from Nigerians, he added that the government could also lose public support if many people begin to see the case as persecution rather than a lawful prosecution.

‎The former federal official stressed that democracy works best when justice is seen to be fair and balanced and noted that citizens should not feel that state institutions are being used to silence political opponents or critics.
