A one term governorship tenure is starring Kogi state governor, Yahaya Bello, in the face.

Multiple party sources in Lokoja and Abuja are emphatic that the Akinwumi Ambode treatment is awaiting the governor in the governorship primaries which comes up in August to select candidates for the November 2019 Kogi governorship election.

The forces up against Bello's re-election are fighting a three-pronged battle to that effect - External, internal and ethno-religious.

The external forces are said to be linked to former Lagos state governor and National Leader of the APC, Bola Tinubu, who....Read More

Very informative.

Sanusi Lamido II, the very powerful Emir of Kano may well be on his way to a humiliating end.

Governor Ganduje is on a revenge mission.

Ironically, Sanusi’s grandfather was deposed.

Everything now, points to the fact that Sanusi II may go the way of his grandfather.
Serves Sanusi right, some people say. It is the law of Karma, others chorus.

But, why would Ganduje bite his nose to spite his face? See Details
Emir Sanusi: Time To Go

What will Ganduje say. He must defend his vendetta action. You were against my second term ambition. I must show you pepper.

Meeting..Meeting.
The meeting is very important to discuss security challenges facing the nation at every angle.
You guys should provide solution now, there is fire on the mountain.
Don't run. Please face it.

The balkanization of the ancient Kano Emirate has elicited several reactions from prominent Nigerians who see it as a frontal attack on a monumental heritage by an incumbent Governor whose sense of outrage against the incumbent Emir, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, has been translated into an act that goes beyond the current occupant of the throne.

And Umar Ghanduje is so fixated on the present infractions that he could not see the big picture.

No, it is not about Sanusi, who is just a temporary occupant of the throne....Read Details

The Lion of Bourdillon, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has been under fire recently for pushing his alleged 2023 presidential ambition with desperate gusto, and planning to install his henchmen in strategic positions in preparations for the final onslaught when the chips are down.

Tinubu appears undaunted. But it appears that his detractors have been able to co-opt the presidency in their dirty war. Tinubu is currently regarded in some quarters as being too powerful to be entrusted with the power at the center..... Read More

President Buhari arrived from London Sunday to face escalating security crisis in the Northern and western part of the country after the Presidency came under fire for allegedly agreeing to pay the bandits N100 million to stop them from continuing attacks on the populace. If the reports are correct, it raises issues of who approved the payment since Vice President Osinbajo could not have signed for the money as the Vice president. Only the President or Acting President could have signed that. Besides, such amount of money ought to pass through the National Assembly for appropriation.Reports were rife that the Presidency held a closed door meeting with Miyetti Allah Cattle rearers who demanded for N160 billion for settlement....More

If the scene which played out at the Plenary Session of the Imo State House of Assembly, IMHA, on Tuesday, April 22, 2019 is anything to go by, then, Governor Rochas Okorocha's problems are bound to worsen.

Seeing that he has become a lame-duck governor, the sleeping members have suddenly woken up, and are asking questions, questions they refused to ask for almost eight years. They are asking about the financial status of the state. They are also interrogating his government. And, for the first time in almost eight years, they are disagreeing with their disgustingly Okorocha-compliant Speaker, Hon. Acho Ihim.
