BondRiv: Reveal it. Fubara's treachery is becoming legendary. A man who can't keep to agreements, despite the involvement of the president. Unrepentant ingrate.
Which eye agreement, Wike should go to court simple, the judges are his friends, sue SIm for not keeping the agreement
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TuPDPHJcRo Gokana LGA is a no-go area for anyone. Be it the so-called governor (Fubara). For him to win anything in Gokana, he must pass through Wike
He would receive a call this night from Abuja that would make not to sleep, either they fall in line with the governor or join Wike in PDP or whichever party he belongs.
I feel the right to do here is bring or support their candidate to contest against Fubara, why all this cry
And you think APC would accept you, try and defect and meet your shocker, you're so toxic, if they accept you you will be caged, but I doubt if they will accept you
To be frank Atiku has no business in the last election after buhari finish second term.
If not for see finish on the south
In buhari second term election no southerners was on the he ballot. Because they know it's wrong timing and respect for sharing formula.
Right now I don't see atiku winning in 2027.not even 2031.
By 2031 tinubu will hand over to ribadu.
It's the same Wike that made Atiku contest the election it was supposed to go to the south east but Wike refused that it should be made open to all southern Nigeria
Wike he go clear for your body very soon, there's a grand plot which you don't seem to understand from next year it would be very clear.
You have shown the kind of person that you are never to be trusted, even Tinubu and is circle don't trust you. You would be stripped off of everything and your wife would be thrown out of position, what would befall you would be like dream. They take instead of making peace you would be disgraced
ufotunang: ..APC cannot reject Wike...if APC has rejected Wike..wike will not had been disturbing himself and using all his efforts in destabilizing, destroying and causing problems in PDP .. and Tinubu would had sacked wike from his FCT minister position if APC has rejected Wike
This is very recent, I believe sometimes last week, well let's sit and watch this interesting journey.
samler: How did Tinubu betrayed Wike?Where were you while Tinubu was asking him to join APC openly?.Wike is not a flexible politician and he'll pay for this,he allowed Fubara to outsmart him....
Do you think anyone would trust Wike having destroyed the PDP, he is done for life politically
Burob: Who will trust that clueless dull Fubara? The APC is not giving him any second term,
Can’t u see how the Judas’s supporters are all crying Wike has lost out, only a blind & deaf hypocrite isn’t aware that Fubara & his overnight APC lovers cannot be trusted.
After betraying Tinubu & Wike, he hurriedly joined the APC, so he can be re elected?
What a clown.
Guy wake up, betray who, are you aware that Wike was turned back from the Villa when he heard Fubara was meeting with the president? I believe you don't know, Wike battle is more than you think
ufotunang: ..then why can't wike just defect to APC.. as he wants to support Tinubu reelection in 2027.. than him wike destabilizing and causing problems and issues in PDP all because he wants Tinubu to have an easy win in 2027...wike is playing anti party activities
There are rumors that APC has rejected Wike from joining the party.
Validated: Please, if you are a smart individual, you got to be careful with our brothers in the other side of the divide. They are not your true friends. Back in the days,I learnt this the hard way. Wike will be used and condemned. Then the narrative will be "afterall, was he not compensated with ministerial appointment"? Come 2027, Fubara will fly APC party flag and Wike will be in the cold, not in APC, not in PDP. That is the symptom of Used and Condemn aka UAC,
Most of if not all Wike followers wouldn't not be returning to the state and national Assembly
Wike you forgot that SIM was in PDP when you made that truce, Field your candidate in PDP to contest against SIM , you're not an APC member and can't decide who contest elections in another party, for all those your supporters you have killed their political career,Martin Amehwule, Major Jack and the rest of them.
LagosOrigin: I see Wike is battle ready to deal with tinubu because why would he make this statement just a day after APC endorsed tinubu and Fubara for a second term.
Wike wants to fight dirty
And you think Wike can fight dirty with the president, without the president Fubara and finished Wike, look whatever you think Wike has planned, he has stepped on many toes and the very visible one is that of Hope Uzodinma, hope is more ruthless than Wike so just sit down and watch how Wike is and his structure crumbles, is it not surprising to you that most of his vocal supporters are quiet, you make me laugh Wike wants to fight with Tinubu 😂😂😂
Masterstroke4: We Reject Any Plan By Defense Minister To Wage War On Fulani People – NHIS Ex-Secretary, Prof. Yusuf
The former Executive Secretary of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), Professor Usman Yusuf, has issued a stern warning against any military strategy targeting the Fulani population. Following recent developments in the nation's security architecture, Yusuf expressed deep concern over the posture of the Ministry of Defense under the leadership of Christopher Musa. He argued that the transition from military command to political leadership requires a fundamental change in approach, moving away from the use of force toward more sustainable administrative solutions.
In a public statement regarding the current security climate, Yusuf emphasized that the Minister of Defense must recognize his current standing within the federal cabinet. He noted that the Minister is now a political office holder and not a battlefield soldier, suggesting that the responsibilities of the office demand a higher level of statesmanship. Yusuf maintained that the reliance on military confrontation has historically proven ineffective in resolving deeply rooted communal and ethnic tensions. He cautioned that continuing on a path of kinetic operations would only lead to a cycle of endless warfare that the country cannot afford.
Professor Yusuf has consistently advocated for a shift in the federal government’s engagement strategy, demanding dialogue and non-violent solutions over armed conflict. He stated that we strongly reject any plan by Defense Minister Christopher Musa to wage war on Fulani people, adding that military confrontation will fail in the long run. The Professor called for a comprehensive framework that prioritizes mediation and addresses the socio-economic factors underlying the insecurity in the North. He urged the government to utilize political channels to foster peace, asserting that the current security challenges cannot be solved through the barrel of a gun.
The call for a non-violent approach comes amid growing debates over the efficacy of internal military operations. Yusuf remains firm in his position that the inclusion of community stakeholders in the peace process is the only viable path forward. He reiterated that the office of the Defense Minister should be used to facilitate reconciliation rather than orchestrating further military offensives against specific ethnic groups. The Professor concluded by urging the federal government to reconsider its current trajectory and embrace a more diplomatic and inclusive security policy.
This is the time the south should allow the north go their way and solve their problems. The northern elite brought this on themselves and should be allowed to sort it out. They can't continue dragging the whole nation for their mess
Yes continue supporting Tinubu and leave Fubara alone, that is all that is expected from you, if you come after Fubara, sorry would be your name. Wike know what happened in Abuja before Fubara defection, how he was stopped from attending the meeting with the president and how he tried blocking Fubara defection. All that shows he has lost, for the lawmakers they all will be called to order. From January it will be a different song, if not Martin would be impeached
LCling: Omor everyone can see Wike live wire . Very risky and exposed . He grab speaker and house members as saving last straw for survival. Tinubu will silently under study the lines and weaken it before 2027 in case of his sellout.. nature game. likely non kinetic, means and internal bribe and guarantee to few members they sabotage the speaker is speaker didn't play along and remove him and have another latency Cartel both opening teeth and support and playing on both Wike and Tinubu table until events days of 2027.
This is what you get when you translate from your native language to English 😂😂😂😂
Akinpedia: The countdown to the 2027 Presidential Election has officially begun, and the political atmosphere is thick with the scent of a brewing battle. The central, unavoidable question is simple, yet revolutionary:
Who can Dethrone the Jagaban?
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is an institution—a political force whose dominance has shaped the South-West and national politics for decades. But for the first time in his tenure, the 'Renewed Hope' agenda is being severely tested by skyrocketing inflation, security crises, and a frustrated populace seeking immediate relief.
The opposition sees blood in the water. From Atiku to Obi to emerging dark horses, a new coalition is actively trying to consolidate its power and present a united front. Join us as we conduct an early, no-holds-barred analysis of the political calculus: assessing the incumbent's shield, the challenger's sword, and the unpredictable variables that will determine Nigeria's leadership in 2027.
Incumbent's Vulnerabilities and Strengths
President Bola Tinubu holds a notably strong and influential position as he heads into the 2027 political landscape, primarily due to the continued dominance of the APC party and the significant policy gains achieved under his leadership. However, despite these strengths, ongoing economic challenges and persistent security gaps present substantial risks that could undermine his administration’s stability and public support moving forward.
Strengths
- The APC currently controls the majority of states across the country and benefits from support that spans multiple political parties, including endorsements from governors representing various regions. This strong position is further reinforced by a significant number of defections from opposing parties as well as influential endorsements coming from the Southwest region, both of which have considerably boosted the party’s standing and prospects. These combined factors have played a crucial role in enhancing the party’s influence and political reach nationwide.
- Economic reforms such as the implementation of unified exchange rates, a significant increase in non-oil revenues, and the reduction of the fiscal deficit from 5.4% to 3.0% of GDP in 2024 clearly demonstrate substantial and tangible progress. These measures highlight the government's commitment to strengthening the economy and improving fiscal stability, reflecting a positive trajectory for future growth and development.
- Strong and enthusiastic regional backing from Southwest governors and influential leaders, combined with a powerful nationwide mobilization effort that emphasizes critical infrastructure developments and enhanced security improvements across various sectors.
- Incumbency advantages, which include strong ministerial roles and well-established party structures, firmly position him as the clear frontrunner according to many political analysts and experts. These factors contribute significantly to his leading status in the race, making him the most favored candidate to win the upcoming 2027 election, as noted by observers closely following the political landscape.
Vulnerabilities
- Persistent inflation soaring beyond 23%, the sharp devaluation of the Naira to an alarming rate of N1,510 per dollar, and the complete removal of subsidies have collectively intensified a severe and widespread cost-of-living crisis affecting millions.
- Since the beginning of 2023, there have been over 10,217 reported deaths resulting from attacks carried out by various armed groups, which seriously undermine any official claims of improved security. Despite governmental assurances, incidents of banditry and kidnappings continue to occur frequently, highlighting the ongoing challenges to safety and stability in the region.
- Multidimensional poverty, impacting more than 133 million people, alongside a sharp surge in unemployment rates, continues to significantly weaken public trust in the government and its economic policies. These pressing issues have created a challenging environment for many citizens who are struggling to meet their basic needs and secure stable employment. The widespread economic hardships have led to increased skepticism and diminished confidence in the government's ability to effectively manage the nation's economic performance and improve living conditions.
- The internal culture of imposing decisions within the APC, combined with the disorganized opposition, has drawn significant critiques that have the potential to seriously undermine the cohesion of the party's base. These critiques highlight ongoing tensions and dissatisfaction that could gradually erode the unity and collective strength that the party relies on for its continued success and influence. The resulting fragmentation within the party's core supporters may lead to challenges in maintaining a solid and unified front moving forward.
Top Three Potential Dethroners
Peter Obi, Atiku Abubakar, and Nasir El-Rufai have emerged prominently as the leading challengers through the ongoing ADC coalition discussions, frequently mentioned in numerous analyses and reports concerning the 2025 elections. Their names consistently appear as key contenders shaping the political landscape in the lead-up to the electoral season.
Peter Obi
Key Advantage: The candidate possesses an unmatched appeal among the youth, coupled with a strong anti-establishment vibe that resonates deeply with younger voters. This unique combination is causing considerable concern for the APC, as it is reflected most prominently in the current polls where the candidate is gaining significant traction.
Path to Victory: Building a dynamic coalition between the youth and urban populations in the South-East and South-South regions, capitalizing on the impressive 25% vote share achieved in 2023. This strategy aims to broaden support by extending outreach and influence into the critical North-Central swing states, which hold significant potential to sway the overall election outcome. By effectively mobilizing these diverse voter bases, the coalition seeks to create a powerful and inclusive movement capable of securing victory in future elections.
Atiku Abubakar
Path to Victory: The coalition of North-North Muslim groups joined forces with Southern minority communities, creating a powerful alliance that builds upon the strong foundation of 29% of the votes secured in 2023 through the ADC platform. This strategic partnership aims to unite diverse voices and interests to increase their influence and achieve greater political success in future elections.
Key Advantage: The veteran stature combined with extensive Northern networks provides a significant strategic edge, enabling a broad and impactful realignment of the opposition. This advantage allows for the creation of new alliances and partnerships that can reshape the political landscape on a much larger scale than before.
Nasir El-Rufai
Path to Victory: Achieving dominance in the North-West region combined with selecting a strong Southern running mate creates a powerful strategy. This approach disrupts the political landscape effectively through coalition support, even without launching a full-fledged candidacy.
Key Advantage: Possessing strong disruptor credentials combined with significant appeal across multiple political parties, he is uniquely positioned either as a kingmaker or a serious contender in the political arena. This dual capability enhances his influence and strategic importance in upcoming elections.
Black Swan Factors
INEC/Electoral Reforms: The 2025 Electoral Bill introduces several significant proposals, including the introduction of digital voter identification cards, the implementation of much tougher penalties for those found guilty of falsifying election results, the allowance of early voting for certain categories of voters, and the requirement for regular audits by INEC to ensure transparency and accuracy. These measures have the potential to greatly enhance the credibility and integrity of Nigeria’s electoral process. However, if the bill is not passed in a timely manner, these reforms could lead to delays in the electoral timeline, creating uncertainty and logistical challenges for the upcoming elections.
Opposition Unity: The ADC coalition, which brings together key figures Atiku, Obi, and El-Rufai, has the potential to unify the fragmented opposition votes from the 2023 elections, which together accounted for approximately 54% of the total vote share. This united front could present a formidable challenge to Tinubu’s 37% support base. However, the coalition’s success faces significant obstacles, as resistance from the PDP and LP parties threatens to undermine the viability and effectiveness of this alliance. The dynamics within these parties and their willingness to collaborate will be crucial in determining the coalition’s ultimate impact.
Socio-Economic Shock: Significant fluctuations in oil prices, sudden crashes in the value of the Naira, or a marked increase in insecurity could greatly intensify economic hardship for many citizens. These challenges have the potential to severely undermine public sentiment, shifting it strongly against ongoing reforms, even when those reforms yield measurable fiscal improvements. The combination of these factors could create a difficult environment where the benefits of economic policies are overshadowed by everyday struggles and concerns about safety.
Tinubu's incumbency combined with the well-organized APC machinery currently position him as the clear favorite for the 2027 reelection, based on prevailing trends and political dynamics.
Nevertheless, if a strong opposition coalition led by the ADC emerges, effectively capitalizing on widespread economic hardships and public dissatisfaction, it could significantly reduce his lead and make the race much more competitive. Unless there are major unforeseen events or shocks that disrupt the political landscape, Tinubu's advantages are expected to hold, though likely by only a narrow and closely contested margin.
Not a Tinubu fan, but as of today Tinubu has won, know to allocate any funds to INEC
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlFH166QsfM Just In: Rivers APC Chairman Tony Okocha hands Governor Siminalayi Fubara the APC membership card at Government House, Port Harcourt
In a dramatic show of party symbolism, Rivers State APC chairman Tony Okocha presented the APC membership card to Governor Siminalayi Fubara during a meeting at Government House, Port Harcourt. The gesture comes amid heightened tension between the governor and the APC‑led faction, which has repeatedly labeled Fubara’s recent outreach to pro‑Wike lawmakers a “Greek gift” and issued a 48‑hour ultimatum for his resignation or impeachment .
Okocha’s move underscores the party’s attempt to assert its influence over the state’s political landscape, even as the governor faces mounting pressure from the APC and the Rivers State House of Assembly. The meeting, held behind closed doors, is being closely watched for any sign of a political reconciliation or further escalation.
Wike and co it's over, I listened online Wike was begging to attend the meeting Fubara had with the president, but was turned down, over zealousness and greed for power has finally brought you down, your style of politics is not worth emulating.
