“Making Peter Obi a Deity Was Our Biggest Mistake. Okonkwo, Ozigbo, Balami are Irreplaceable,"— Kennedy Iyere on Obi’s 2027 Chances

“Peter Obi Starved His Support Groups in 2023 — Can He Survive 2027?” — Ex-Obidient Leader Kennedy Iyere

“2027 may be Peter Obi’s toughest political battle yet.”

That was the explosive warning from outspoken activist and former Obidient leader, Kennedy Iyere, during a powerful interview on Diaspora Digital Media Television, where he opened up on what he described as the major mistakes that weakened the Obidient Movement after the 2023 presidential election.

Iyere, who was one of the key leaders of Peter Obi’s support networks in 2022 before later withdrawing his support, declared that “making Peter Obi a deity” was one of the movement’s greatest political errors. He argued that influential figures such as Kenneth Okonkwo, Valentine Ozigbo and Isaac Balami were too valuable to lose, insisting that no successful political movement survives by sidelining strong voices and loyal structures.

The Founder of the 40Million Ballots Movement, Convener of the Fix National Assembly 2027 Movement, and 2027 Edo Central Senatorial Aspirant further alleged that Peter Obi “starved” many support groups that helped build the movement from the grassroots, warning that repeating the same strategy could seriously affect Obi’s chances in 2027.

Iyere’s blunt remarks have already triggered intense debate online, with supporters and critics divided over whether the former Labour Party presidential candidate has learned enough political lessons ahead of the next election cycle.

Ahead of the 2027 elections, Nigeria’s political scene was stirred on Thursday after the #Obidient Movement announced its disbandment and removed Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, Yunusa Tanko, and others linked to what it described as an unauthorised post-2023 leadership structure.
The group accused the former leadership of using the movement for personal and political gains, prompting its rebranding to the #OBEDIENT Movement to distance itself from Obi and his loyalists.
Speaking in Abuja, the group’s International Coordinator, Dr Barry Avotu Johnson, said the movement has no ties with the Labour Party and has not adopted any candidate for the 2027 presidential election.

Kwankwaso Brokers Peace Deal in Kano, Ends NDC Power Struggle


Former Kano State governor and influential political leader, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has held a high-level reconciliation meeting with the national leadership of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), aimed at resolving the internal crisis within the party’s Kano chapter.
The dispute, which arose after Kwankwaso’s entry into the NDC, centered on control of the party structure in the state, with the state chairman, Husaini Isah Mai Riga, resisting pressure to relinquish leadership. At the meeting, convened by the NDC national leadership, both parties agreed on a compromise that preserves Mai Riga’s position as state chairman while integrating Kwankwaso’s political structure into the party framework. Sources indicate that the agreement includes a power-sharing arrangement designed to harmonize operations and avoid parallel structures within the state. Political analysts say the resolution is critical, given Kano’s strategic importance in national elections, and could significantly boost NDC’s chances if unity is sustained.

Peter Obi: “ADC Was Full of Hawks—Now Only Carcass Remains”— Obidient Leader, Dr. Ben Chukwu, Blasts Kenneth Okonkwo Over Obi-NDC Remark


In a fiery and no-holds-barred audio commentary exclusively obtained by Diaspora Digital Media, Dr Ben Chukwu, a staunch voice within the Obidient Movement, has unleashed a blistering attack on Kenneth Okonkwo, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), over his criticism of Peter Obi.
Reacting to Okonkwo’s remarks condemning Obi’s exit from ADC to the Labour Party, Chukwu did not hold back—branding ADC as a party that was once “full of hawks” but has now been reduced to “nothing but a carcass.” The statement, sharp and symbolic, paints a picture of a political structure he believes has lost both direction and relevance.

A growing number of political observers are describing Peter Obi’s move to the Nigeria Democratic Congress as a bold and calculated masterstroke. Among them is an X user, Harmless, who paints Obi as a quiet strategist rather than a reactive politician.

According to the commentary, Obi entered the coalition fully aware of internal plots against his ambition, but chose patience over confrontation. Instead of resisting, he played along—only to exit at the right moment with a major political gain: Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.

The takeaway is striking—what appeared to be a coalition move designed to contain Obi may have instead strengthened him. In simple terms, critics say the coalition tried to use Obi, but in the end, Obi turned the tables and used the coalition to his advantage.

In a dramatic political development, Peter Obi and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso have officially joined the NDC and received their membership cards, signaling what could become a major realignment ahead of future elections.

The moment gained further attention when Obi reportedly declared, “Don’t Come Here,” a statement widely interpreted as a direct warning to Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress. The remark has fueled speculation that the new political platform may be positioning itself as a serious opposition force.

With two influential figures now under one banner, analysts say the move could reshape coalition politics, energize supporters, and intensify the battle for power in Nigeria’s evolving political landscape.

‘Get Licences for Fake Guns’, Kanayo O. Kanayo Warns Colleagues in Nollywood Over Delta Police Murder

Outspoken Kanayo O. Kanayo has sparked fresh debate following the controversial killing of Mene Ogidi in Delta State, using the tragedy to issue a stern warning to his colleagues in Nollywood. In an emotional reaction, the veteran actor urged filmmakers and actors who use imitation weapons on movie sets to immediately visit the nearest police headquarters or command to obtain proper licences for fake guns.

His remarks reflect growing fears over how prop weapons are perceived by law enforcement, especially after reports that Ogidi was allegedly killed during a police operation linked to a firearm-related suspicion. Kanayo’s statement has since drawn widespread attention, with many seeing it as both a wake-up call to the entertainment industry and a sharp criticism of policing practices that can turn deadly.

“Without Britain, America Might Speak French”— King Charles, Trump Trade Jabs Over World War II

During a high-profile engagement at the White House, King Charles III and Donald Trump exchanged sharp but light-hearted historical remarks that quickly drew public attention.

The exchange was triggered by Trump’s earlier comment referencing the role of the United States in shaping the outcome of World War II, where he suggested that without American intervention, several European countries might have been speaking German today.

In a pointed response, King Charles III pushed back, noting Britain’s own historical influence and remarking that without British contributions to global history, the United States itself might have ended up speaking French. The comment added a witty twist to the discussion, reframing the historical narrative in a more balanced light.

The exchange, while diplomatic in tone, underscored the enduring importance of historical memory in U.S.–UK relations and highlighted the familiar mix of respect, rivalry, and humour that often characterizes interactions between the two allies.
