SmartPolician:
Oga, go and rest! Sowore will criticise anyone he wants to criticise. It's okay for him to criticise Tinubu, but it's not okay for him to criticise those you like as if everyone hates Tinubu. You will cry after his criticism and later you go dey alright.

PS: I won't comment on this issue again

You people like playing with fire.
The fire Sowore and you people are playing with might burn you people. Just be careful not to make the Igbos angry.

Those nonentities should be pleased that Sowore has the time to waste on them putting them in the media.

HEADLINE: “THE VERDICT IS OUT”: IGBO NATION DECLARES OMOYELE SOWORE AN ENEMY; LEADERS SAY HIS DOWNFALL IS NEAR

ENUGU— The drums of political judgment sounded across the Southeast on Saturday as powerful Igbo coalitions formally declared activist Omoyele Sowore an enemy of Ndigbo, warning that his “downfall is near” if he continues what they call a campaign of sabotage against Igbo leaders.

In a joint world press conference in Enugu, the United Igbo Front and the Igbo Youth Assembly said Sowore had crossed a red line with relentless attacks on Peter Obi, Alex Otti, and other prominent Southeast figures, branding him “a stumbling block to Igbo Presidency in 2027.”

“Omoyele Sowore is an enemy of the Igbos,” the coalition’s chairman declared, as the hall erupted. “He has chosen to fight the sons who carry our hope. Now the Igbo nation will fight back — politically, democratically, and totally. His downfall is near.”

The groups accused Sowore of using his platform to demarket Igbo competence ahead of 2027, saying his actions amount to “political warfare” against a region seeking justice and equity. “You cannot mock the hand that wants to heal Nigeria,” a women leader from Aba said. “The East is awake. Sowore’s era of unchecked attacks ends now.”

From Onitsha to Abakaliki, market unions pledged to launch massive voter education drives to “bury Sowore’s influence” in the Southeast and among Igbo voters nationwide. Diaspora groups in the U.S. and U.K. announced social media campaigns under the banner “Enemy of Ndigbo,” vowing to counter every post he makes about Igbo leaders.

Traditional rulers who attended the event said the insult to one Igbo leader is an insult to all. “We have been patient. Our patience is not weakness,” an elder from Anambra stated. “The downfall of Sowore will be written by the same people he seeks to reduce.”

The coalition warned political parties and media houses to “take note” of the new stance, insisting that any alliance with Sowore against Igbo interest will be met with electoral consequences.

Omoyele Sowore has not issued a response. But across Igbo land, the message is sealed: the region has drawn a line. And for Sowore, they say, the countdown has begun.

It’s unfortunate that statements like these fail to acknowledge the real issues at play in Nigeria’s quest for leadership. Yes, experience is important, but so is equity and justice in our political landscape. The argument for Atiku’s experience and long-standing contributions to governance is valid, but it overlooks a crucial point: the demand for inclusivity in leadership and fair representation, particularly when it’s the Southeast’s turn to produce the next president.

Leadership in Nigeria cannot continue to be a game of “turn-taking” where some regions are systematically sidelined. The principle of fairness, not just experience, should be at the heart of this conversation. Yes, Atiku’s experience is undeniable, but the idea that certain regions or candidates are entitled to leadership simply because they have held power before, or because of political pressure, only deepens the sense of injustice felt by those who have been excluded for far too long.

It’s also worth noting that advocating for regional equity doesn’t diminish the competence of any candidate—whether it’s Atiku or Obi. It’s about understanding that leadership should not always be defined by who’s had their time at the top, but also who has the potential to bring fresh perspectives to governance and foster true national unity.

Finally, the notion that calls for a Southeastern president are divisive or premature ignores the reality that some regions of Nigeria have been historically marginalized. If we’re serious about unity and progress, then the political conversation needs to evolve to not just be about experience or power games, but about ensuring no one is left behind. So, rather than dismissing those who are advocating for the rightful representation of the Southeast, maybe it’s time we asked ourselves: What kind of Nigeria do we really want to build?

Labour Party Reserves 2027 Presidential Ticket for Southern Region, South-East Stakeholders Push for Zone

The Labour Party Nigeria has officially announced that its presidential ticket for the 2027 general election will be zoned to the southern region of the country, a decision that is already generating strong reactions across political circles—particularly in the South-East.

The party’s acting National Chairperson, Nenadi Usman, disclosed that the decision is final and effectively rules out aspirants from Northern Nigeria. According to her, the move is part of a broader strategy to position the party ahead of the next electoral cycle.

Usman stated that the party would not accept any northern aspirant for the presidential race, emphasizing that internal democracy would still determine who eventually emerges as the candidate during the primaries.

Although the zoning is to the entire southern region, stakeholders in the South-East have begun intensifying calls for the ticket to specifically be ceded to the zone. Party leaders in the region have expressed confidence in their political strength and are advocating that the South-East should produce the party’s flagbearer.

Notably, prominent figures within the zone have also thrown their weight behind Alex Otti, praising his leadership and performance, while passing a vote of confidence on both state and national party leadership.

The zoning decision comes amid broader internal restructuring within the party. The Labour Party recently postponed its congresses and national convention to allow for increased participation and accommodate a surge in membership nationwide.

Political analysts say the move to zone the ticket southward may reshape alliances and intensify competition among southern political blocs, especially between the South-East, South-West, and South-South regions.


Despite the zoning announcement, the party has not endorsed any individual aspirant. Usman reiterated that the Labour Party would not impose a candidate, insisting that the democratic process would determine its presidential flagbearer.

The decision is seen as a strategic attempt by the party to remain competitive in the evolving landscape ahead of the 2027 Nigerian general election, where regional balance and political alliances are expected to play a decisive role.

Summary:
While the Labour Party has officially reserved its 2027 presidential ticket for the South, pressure is mounting from South-East stakeholders who want the slot specifically allocated to their region. The final decision on the candidate, however, will be determined through party primaries.

A forum of Yoruba elders has issued a stern caution to Yoruba politicians within the African Democratic Congress, warning them against any move to undermine the party’s Southeast presidential candidate ahead of 2027.

The elders, who met in Ibadan on Tuesday, said the ADC has taken a historic step by backing equity and zoning its presidential ticket to the Southeast. They described the move as a “corrective step for Nigeria” and insisted that Yoruba stakeholders in the party must protect, not sabotage, the decision.

“ADC has chosen justice. Yoruba sons and daughters in ADC must not become the knife that cuts that justice,” the forum’s spokesperson said. “History is watching. The Yoruba nation has always stood for fairness. This is not the time to betray that legacy for short-term ambition.”

The elders warned against parallel structures, anti-party activities, and backdoor alliances aimed at weakening the Southeast flagbearer Peter Obi. They called on ADC state chairmen, aspirants, and youth leaders of Yoruba extraction to mobilize fully for the Southeast candidate and to treat any sabotage as “sabotage against Yoruba honour.”

“Let it be clear: no Yoruba politician in ADC should lobby for a switch, sponsor dissent, or demarket the ticket,” the communiqué read. “The Southeast has waited long enough. If ADC becomes the vehicle that delivers that dream, the Yoruba must be remembered as builders, not blockers.”

The forum also appealed to traditional rulers and community leaders in the Southwest to hold their politicians accountable and ensure the region speaks with one voice on equity.

ADC has not officially announced its presidential candidate, but party insiders say consultations are narrowing toward prominent Southeast figure. The elders’ intervention signals an early attempt to prevent internal fractures before primaries begin.

Tinubu has betrayed everybody that helped him to climb to power including EL rufai that stood firmly with him when buhari, the then APC national chairman Abdulahi and northern governors rejected him. Listen to the press conference he had yesterday and you will see a man who is hell bent on destroying this country . Tinubu threatened everybody and even promised more brutish policies that will imporish Nigerians the more if he wins the second term. Man is so callous and self absorbed.

Tinubu have woken up the sleeping Lion and have bite the fingers that feed him and for this reason tinubu will not be re-elected in 2027.
No amount of atonement can take away tinubu wrong doings against the Nigerians.

Tinubu have failed Nigerians!
Tinubu is not meant to be a president of Nigeria. Tinubu is associated with failure all his life.

Northerners Calls Tinubu Betrayer

Social media activist Vincent Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, has announced plans to release what he described as “classified and top secrets” concerning Sahara Reporters publisher and activist Omoyele Sowore.

In a broadcast late Thursday, VDM said he would question Sowore’s sources of income and public lifestyle, arguing that Nigerians deserve full disclosure from public figures who campaign on accountability. “Activism cannot be a shield from transparency,” he stated, adding that his forthcoming revelations would “ask the hard questions.”

VDM did not provide documents or specific figures in his preview, but said he intends to scrutinize how high-profile activists fund personal expenses, including their children’s education. He called on Sowore to publicly declare his income sources, assets, and business interests “the same way he demands of politicians.”

Sowore has not yet responded to VDM’s remarks. The activist and former presidential candidate has long maintained that his work is funded through journalism, speaking engagements, and international advocacy, and has previously challenged critics to provide evidence of wrongdoing.

The development sets up a rare clash between two prominent government critics, with transparency as the battleground. Political observers say the exchange could force a broader conversation about financial disclosure standards for non-state actors who wield significant public influence.

This is why we banned it on MarketspaceNG.

That was the right thing to do.

The PDP did a good work in giving tinubu administration clue to ending insecurity in Nigeria.


In Kogi State when insecurity become uncontrollable and crime rates was on the increase daily during the administration of former governor yahaya bello: the yahaya bello administration took drastic step by banning prostitution and brothels in Kogi State and within 72hours; the high crime rates and insecurity in Kogi State reduce drastically and Kogi State was peaceful and safe again.

I praise the Op for bringing this news to nairaland.
Last 3years when crime and insecurity increase to 90% in Edo State during the tenure of former governor Godwin Obaseki: governor Obaseki did the unthinkable by banning brothels and prostitution in Edo State and within 72hours crime rates and insecurity in Edo State reduce drastically to 16%.

PDP are correct in their analysis about the way to go on ending insecurity in Nigeria.

I remember then when crime was increasing rapidly in River State during the tenure of wike as governor: wike immediately order the closure of brothels and club houses in river state and within 48 hours crime reduce drastically in the state.

Factional Tension Rocks APC as Aggrieved Members Oppose Tinubu’s 2027 Ambition

Fresh cracks have emerged within Nigeria’s ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), as a faction of aggrieved members openly opposes the potential 2027 presidential bid of Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

The disgruntled bloc, drawn from various party stakeholders, is insisting that President Tinubu should not seek re-election in 2027. Instead, they are advocating for a power shift to Nigeria’s South-East region, arguing that fairness, equity, and national unity demand that the APC zones its presidential ticket to the region.

Speaking through a coalition of party leaders and youth representatives, the group emphasized that the South-East has long been marginalized in the country’s power dynamics and deserves a chance to produce the next president under the APC platform.

“We believe in the unity of Nigeria, and for that unity to be sustained, justice must prevail. The South-East has not had a fair shot at the presidency. The APC should correct this in 2027,” a spokesperson for the faction stated.

However, the proposal has reportedly met stiff resistance from President Tinubu and his loyalists within the party. Sources close to the presidency indicate that Tinubu is not inclined to step aside, maintaining that his administration still has a mandate to consolidate ongoing reforms and national development efforts.

Party insiders say the disagreement is already fueling internal consultations and quiet lobbying across different regions, raising concerns about a possible deepening of factional divisions within the APC ahead of the next general election cycle.

Political analysts warn that if not carefully managed, the growing rift could weaken the party’s cohesion and electoral strength. Some have called on the APC leadership to initiate early reconciliation talks to address grievances and prevent a full-blown internal crisis.

As 2027 draws closer, the unfolding power struggle within the APC is expected to shape Nigeria’s political landscape, with zoning, equity, and leadership continuity likely to dominate national discourse.

Take only your family to go and do the protest

You tinubu supporters like to display your ignorance and dishonesty manner always on nairaland.

This gave me goosebumps. 🇳🇬✨
Even in the heat of struggle, Nigerians are still choosing unity, compassion, and hope—that alone is powerful.

The shift in dates shows wisdom, the adjustment in demands shows empathy, and the gesture of sharing food shows the true Nigerian spirit: we don’t just fight together, we care for each other too. ❤️

April 3rd & 4th won’t just be about protest—it will be about people, purpose, and possibility.

May our voices be heard, may justice be served, and may this moment truly mark the beginning of something better for us all. 💪🏾🇳🇬

Benin City, Nigeria —
A coalition of civic groups under the banner of the South-East Presidential Taskforce has issued a strong warning to political actors following reports of an alleged attack on former Anambra State governor and Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, during a visit to Edo State.

In a statement released Wednesday, the group called on the All Progressives Congress, the Edo State Government, and all security agencies to ensure the safety of every political leader participating in Nigeria’s democratic process ahead of the 2027 elections.

The coalition stressed that any attack or intimidation against a South-East presidential aspirant would be viewed as a serious threat to democracy and national unity. According to the statement, the region’s leaders and stakeholders are closely monitoring developments and expect authorities to take firm action against anyone found responsible for political violence.

“The safety of candidates such as Peter Obi and every other aspirant must be guaranteed,” the group said. “Nigeria’s democracy depends on the freedom of leaders to campaign, interact with citizens, and present their visions without fear.”

The taskforce urged supporters across party lines to remain calm and law-abiding while demanding accountability through legal and constitutional means. They also called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and federal security agencies to reinforce protections for all political figures ahead of the 2027 presidential race.

Political analysts say rising political tensions across the country make it important for leaders and institutions to prioritize dialogue, rule of law, and respect for democratic competition.

The South-East Presidential Taskforce concluded by emphasizing that Nigeria’s stability depends on fairness, justice, and the protection of every citizen’s political rights.
