25 out of 36 states. Is this the political game-changer Nigeria needed or a worrying shift toward a one-party system? Diri's defection just pushed the APC's control to nearly 70% of states. With the APC now controlling nearly 70% of state governments, what does this mean for the 2027 Presidential Election? Can the remaining opposition parties (PDP, LP, NNPP, APGA) effectively check the ruling party's power nationally? Drop your take below! 👇 With Diri's defection, APC now controls nearly 70% of Nigerian states (Nov 3, 2025)

Tinubu has everything he needs for smooth sailing in 2027. No one should be deceived, he will win with a landslide. Let's just hope that he doesn't extend his tenure beyond 2031. |

This is not the first time a party will have 70% of the governorship positions, PDP did it in2003 and 2007. So there is no need to be afraid of a one-party state. |

Baba bullying and buying everyone to join his evil party . This is a man that claimed to be a total democrat and one opposition leader. If masses can really know,who is really fighting for them, or who is using their head to get to power. |

It's a gradual process 📌💯 Wrong time to decamp, master strategist plotter structure agbádorianss looking for support of opposition as Trump is after his career 🤣😂😅. Who has the list of catholic priest kidnapped and murdered by bandits in Benue and Kaduna State. I want check something 😎 |

In 2015 Pdp had more than 70% of states and still lost the election. |

I see the emergence of new sovereign,seems like 4 or 5 but 2027 is full of suspense |

There is nothing like APGA or LP. Soludo and Otti are APC members by heart. The only opposition Jagaban has in 2027 is Sowore. Politicians like Atiku and Obi are just jokers. |

None of them, I repeat none of them are interested in the well being of the Nigeria economy, what matters to them is their stomach infrastructure, they care not about ordinary Nigerian who doesn't find himself in the corridor of power not to talk of the special ones (handicap) this is a case of politicians vs ordinary Nigerian. If the people unite the party will be over for all of them

casualobserver:Believe me, the Igbos have nothing to do with the Trump threat. The Tinubu government has handled the internal security of the state poorly. He and his handlers made things worse by falling for the same trick they pulled during the Jonathan years and drawing the attention of Trump. Serves him right. Nonetheless, I do not support American Government intervention in our affairs. They are not our friends. |

As far as 2027 presidential election is concerned, it is already a done deal for APC. But governorship elections will likely be another kettle of fish entirely. APC won't return to power in some states. I'm not expecting APC to control 25 states after 2027 general elections. |

LegendHero:they lack the ability to think, they act on emotion and ego and when it backfire they play victim. Good thing is that this is playing out in the information age, its not a case of gaslighting us with the motive for the coup.....we can all see it as it is playing out...evidence boku! apart from the fact that they are the ones who are inviting foreigners to invade our country, just like how they celebrated the death of Sardauna etc in 1966, they are the ones celebrating the possibility of an invasion by trump. Tomorrow their children will come and say it wasnt an ibo invasion. Evidence Boku! has anybody seen any prominent Ibo condemn it? Even Obi who they are hoping to install only commented after pressure and he refused to say this is a sovereign nation you cannot come here. he refused to say what we all know that it is not a christian genocide. the only prominent ibo men who has spoken decisively and unequivocally on the issue are Soludo and igbokwe and we shall remember them well. the others are keeping quiet, hedging their bets, praying an invasion happens. |

HeatSeeker:Lol. You really don't know what has been happening behind the scenes, the matter is just going mainstream after Trump's pronouncement, some of us have been on their trail following their moves. The Igbos are 100% responsible for the classification of Nigeria as a CPC, they lobbied for it and they got it
