Osun Central Senator, Olubiyi Fadeyi Dumps APC, Joins PDP by Ofunaofu(op): 5:22am On Jul 24
Senator Olubiyi Fadeyi and Senator Francis Fadahunsi, including Hon. Omirin Olusanya, representing Ijesa South Federal Constituency; Wole Oke, representing Ijesa North Federal Constituency; and Taofeek Ajilesoro, representing Ife Central Federal Constituency, joined the APC from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in February 2026.

While others were given automatic tickets in the APC, Senator Fadeyi was not returned. He contested the primary with Kunle Adegoke, SAN, and lost.

In his official letter of resignation addressed to the Senate President, a copy of which was obtained by our correspondent on Thursday, Fadeyi stated:

“I write to formally tender my resignation from the All Progressives Congress (APC), effective immediately.

“This decision has not been taken lightly. I joined the APC as progressive party in good faith to support Mr. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR in his ancestral home which falls in my senatorial district, Osun Central.

“Having got assurances and agreement reached by Mr. President to give me sole ticket to run for senatorial seat under APC in Osun Central which same was passed down to our leader of the party by Mr. President. I believed that those understandings would be honoured and that the party would uphold the principles of fairness, equity, mutual respect and internal democracy.

“Regrettably, recent developments from the leadership of APC in Osun State have created serious trust issues within the party and made my continued membership of the party untenable.

“It was expressly agreed that the process for selecting candidates would be conducted on the basis of consensus.

“However, no consensus process was genuinely conducted, nor were party primaries held in a transparent and acceptable manner. This departure from our collective understanding has eroded confidence and undermined trust within the party.

“Furthermore, the manner in which decisions were taken appeared to disregard the authority and leadership of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, whose commitment to due process, party cohesion and democratic values is well known.

“I remain unable to understand the rationale behind the decision to return tickets to my colleague, a serving Senator, and three House of Representatives members that were defected with me, while declining my own ticket.

“This development leaves many unanswered questions. As a sitting Senator representing Osun Central Senatorial District, I earned the confidence of my constituents by defeating an incumbent APC Senator from Osogbo during the 2023 General Election. I had expected that my performance, loyalty and electoral value would receive fair and objective consideration.

“I wish to state unequivocally that I remain one hundred per cent committed to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, and supportive of the Renewed Hope Agenda. My decision is not in opposition to the President, his administration or his vision for Nigeria. Rather, it is informed by my conviction that democratic principles, mutual trust and respect for agreements must always prevail.

“Most importantly, I owe a duty to the good people of Osun Central Senatorial District, whose mandate I hold in trust. In obedience to the wishes and aspirations of my constituents, and in order to protect their mandate and political interests, I have resolved to take this difficult but necessary decision.

“I thank the leadership and members of the APC for the opportunity to serve and wish the party well in its future endeavours.


“I am proud to inform you that I am joining the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),” Fadeyi said

Wow, that's a very rare move. Jumping from a moving train onto one with no clear direction is a bold gamble. It almost looks like you're planning your political retirement.

Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister for the Economy, Mr. Wale Edun made this known at the end of the inaugural Federal Executive Council meeting in Abuja.
Mr. Edun said that the benefit of the subsidy removal will be plough back into various sectors to improve business environment for local and foreign investment.
He added that with the increased revenue from subsidy removal, various palliatives have been made available to cushion its effect on a short, medium and long-term basis.

Report: Current Govt Added More Debt in Two Years Than Nigeria Accumulated in 55 Years

• Decries Nigeria’s debt service-to-revenue ratio

•Urges FG to declare fiscal emergency

A new policy brief has warned that Nigeria’s worsening debt profile and weak revenue generation have pushed the country into a dangerous fiscal position, with the current administration accumulating more debt in two years than Nigeria recorded during its first 55 years after independence.

The report, released by the Alliance for Economic Research and Ethics LTD/GTE, a Nigerian policy think tank, argued that the country’s debt crisis has evolved into a governance and revenue emergency, as debt servicing obligations now exceed the federal government’s retained earnings.

According to the think tank, Nigeria’s public debt rose sharply from N87.38 trillion in June 2023 to N159.28 trillion by the end of 2025, with President Bola Tinubu’s administration accounting for about N65.9 trillion of the increase within its first two years in office.

The organisation in the brief titled: “Nigeria Is Borrowing to Breathe—and the Clock Is Ticking”, noted that Nigeria accumulated only about N12.06 trillion in debt from independence in 1960 up to 2015, meaning the current administration added more than five times that amount in just 24 months.

The report stated that while previous governments also contributed significantly to the country’s rising debt burden, the speed of accumulation under the current administration had intensified concerns over fiscal sustainability.

“President Bola Tinubu’s administration has added a further N65.9 trillion in just two years. To put that in perspective: it took Nigeria’s first 55 years of independence to accumulate N12 trillion in debt. The current administration has added more than five times that amount in 24 months,” it argued.

It recalled that Nigeria briefly became almost debt-free externally after the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo secured an $18 billion Paris Club debt relief package in 2005 and paid $12 billion to extinguish about $30 billion in external obligations.

Press9jatv... Come and see part of those you people scammed. Dude thought he won in 2023 because he's popular, lol. You won because of Adeleke factor. Even if a cat had been presented under PDP, it would have still won.

Nonsense and ingredient.
