🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣(EARPORT) Rip English ooo [quote author=Naijahero1 post=139047797]We have done the assessments across Nigeria and the voices are loud, firm, harsh and the same from the remotest parts of the north down to the south. The name TInubu is a dangerous taboo, it's considered a curse. No one is asking him not to rig but it will choke him as Nigerians won't go to court. It will be handled legally on the streets. There is no difference between TInubu's government and death.
Shockingly, the most angry tribe now are the Yoruba who for the first time witness a large influx of people from Kwara to other states for safety. The trauma is unbearable.
What about the economy? The daily survival?The economy is in shambles. Insecurity is worse now, people can't go to farm without the fear of being kidnapped. People are killed and displaced and the most annoying is that TInubu is obviously mute or often chooses to mock the people himself (You have no light at the earport, I will be flying back within 10 minutes) or through unsympathetic, uncouth and lying spokespersons.
How can Nigerians forgive him? Is it my abandoning the masses and believing the 36 states governors will determine his reelection? Or by giving them some cups of rice after 4 tortuous years? You can rig elections and go scot-free if you have performed relatively well but where your score is screaming red, and people are angry, rigging is suicidal. I think TInubu has realised this but it's too late to make amends. What we have now are deluded supporters like Wike trying to destabilize the oppositions and assuring TInubu of reelection but it's backfiring. The opposition is growing and becoming resilient. When opposition has more support and becomes more popular than the government, you can't do anything. You're defeated even before the election. TInubu knows that 2023 was allowed to fly because he was sold to Nigeria on the false mantra of the builder of Lagos and people wanted to see him try but now Nigerians have seen the truth. If the north and south are up against you, where will you get your votes? Rig and roast!
That woman said, “gbogbo ibi to ba wa o ma ni inira ni,” meaning wherever Tinubu is, hardship will follow him. It clearly reflects deep frustration and exhaustion.
2027 is around the corner—BAT, it’s time to start preparing to leave. https://t.co/cHZLUya9oj
Decamp to ADC? Is that how you guys fool yourself in your WhatsApp group? Incumbent house of representatives member from kogi state, that was elected twice under the platform of ADC
oyeb15: The House of Rep member recently decamp to ADC .This guy has acheived nothing for his constituency apart from saying Tinubu must win 2027. So he decamped to ADC to destrupt the party with Gonbe.
This is no more democracy
Some people cannot be destroying the country for benefit at d expense of good citizens
BREAKING: Senator Kabiru Mafara the charismatic Zamfara Central senator has just officially joined the ADC coalition days after he resigned from the sinking ship of the APC.
peculiar2233: Don’t worry you will cry more. We all support Madam Hafsatu Danladi as the true Chairperson of the APC. Go to court and stop crying like bush baby
A coalition of prominent Nigerian political figures on Wednesday staged a protest in Abuja, demanding reforms in the country’s electoral system and accusing the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of bias.
The demonstration, tagged “Occupy INEC” and “Save Our Democracy,” was spearheaded by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, alongside Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate Peter Obi, former Kano State governor Rabiu Kwankwaso, and former Minister of Transportation Rotimi Amaechi.
Also present were the National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), David Mark, former Osun State governor Rauf Aregbesola, former Sokoto State governor Aminu Tambuwal, and former senator Dino Melaye, among other party leaders and supporters.
Trigger for the Protest
The protest follows INEC’s decision to withdraw recognition from the ADC leadership after a Court of Appeal ruling, a move the demonstrators described as politically motivated.
Organisers said the action was aimed at drawing attention to what they termed increasing interference in the electoral process and the need to safeguard Nigeria’s democratic institutions.
Atiku Abubakar, who had earlier announced the protest, said it was a peaceful demonstration driven by a commitment to protect democracy and prevent any slide toward authoritarian rule.
Voices from the Streets
At the protest venue, demonstrators chanted “Ojoro”, a slang expression suggesting electoral malpractice, while holding placards bearing inscriptions such as “Tinubu, why are you afraid?”, “Let democracy breathe,” and “Judges must give justice.”
Participants also sang “Arise, O Compatriots,” Nigeria’s former national anthem, in what appeared to be a symbolic expression of national unity and civic responsibility.
Amaechi Urges Citizens to Act
Addressing the crowd, Rotimi Amaechi called on Nigerians to take an active role in defending the country’s democracy.
He warned against political manipulation and emphasized the importance of maintaining the integrity of the electoral process.
According to Amaechi, the protest reflects a broader commitment among political leaders to demand credible, free, and transparent elections, adding that safeguarding democracy is a responsibility that extends beyond politicians to all citizens.
Rising Political Undercurrents
The joint appearance of Atiku, Obi, Kwankwaso, and other influential figures—many of whom were rivals in the 2023 presidential election—has fueled speculation about possible political realignments ahead of 2027.
Analysts say the protest signals growing concern among opposition leaders over electoral credibility and could mark the early stages of coalition-building.
Call for Electoral Integrity
The protesters urged INEC to remain independent and uphold its constitutional responsibility to conduct free and fair elections.
They warned that any perceived bias could erode public trust and weaken Nigeria’s democratic framework.
The protest underscores increasing political tension as the country gradually shifts focus toward the 2027 general elections, with stakeholders calling for transparency, accountability, and stronger democratic institutions.
Peter obi should declare himself as APC national chairman immediately
ottersberger: PDP is crippled. LP is crippled. SDP is crippled. ADC is rendered barely functional. Registration of new parties is restrained.
The Nigerian opposition has failed to heed the Old Testament commandment of an eye for an eye. In place of grown men who have worked hard to create a name for themselves, crying and marching in the rain in protest against one illegitimate president's antics, it is now time to “scatter” his party, the APC, as well. Let weariness and confusion enter their midst, too.
ADC must now provision funds to sponsor claimants to the chairmanship throne in the APC. There is no dearth of eligible candidates, and Wike's for the right price. I can find ten of them tomorrow morning. Let the courts be littered with petitions, and let them be served with the injunctions of claimants.
When every man and his wife grow tired and weary of the madness, we will return to real politics and nation-building. No one man is bigger than the country. It is only those who abdicated their responsibility to themselves that gave rise to emperors and dictators. When Bulgarians grew tired of dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu, they publicly lynched him and his wife.
Every APC state chapter chairmanship must be disputed in the courts. The national chairman and national secretary positions must be illegally occupied. When?. Yesterday, already. The Nigerian judiciary and the corrupt INEC must be allowed to nuance their bias before the Nigerian people. This has to be the way forward.
nairavsdollars: Wike kept saying PDP, Nigeria's major opposition party is not dead. He even organized a national convention. But he wants all his men in PDP to vote for President Bola Tinubu in 2027.
Is that not a one party state?
Tinubu only saw a willing tool in Wike and ADC played into their hands
floss: Has ADC ever disrupted other parties from going about their party business and activities, since you want to play to the gallery with your own pettiness…Apc destroyed pdp and rewarded Wike handsomely for that, Apc destroyed LP and rewarded Lamidi Apapa for it… Apc is currently taunting ADC, so if you don’t want to have general elections, say it so that only your party will be on the ballot… then Nigeria will start practicing a new system of government which is not democracy because in democracy, there’s no interference of government in the business of another political party… but Apc has been using that strategy, I’m glad some of the people that helped Tulumbu achieve that in the past have left… so it’s up to him to decide what system of government he wants to adopt
Simple question is ADC the only political party in Nigeria?
floss: So to sophisticated people and failure strategist , having Inec and judiciary as your foot soldiers is how elections are conducted in other countries… if you’re really sure of yourself, let Inec chairman, and chief justice of Nigeria be independent and not answerable to or being appointed by the president , then you’ll see free and fair elections… see the pettiness of Apc , ever since kwankwaso joined, Tulumbu has been scared.
If you’re so convinced you’ve worked for the people, you don’t need the governors or celebrities by paying them to be with you in your camp…. You should have the people because power is with the people not governors… see abia state for example

Naijahero1: Yesterday, I made a post explaining how grossly INEC had erred. And for that matter it did so hastily leaving dangerous streaks all the way. The ADC guys already know there is no crisis in the party although they want to capitalize on it to show how unpopular and desperate TInubu and APC are, and attract more attention, which is working perfectly. You know why ADC guys are not jittery, the INEC action is a big slap on their credibility and it will lead to the removal of Amupitan. Let's go straight to the point. 1. INEC claims it acted on court order. Up to this moment INEC has no written instruction, notice from any court, judge detailing the action INEC should take. Nigerians are asking Amupitan, he is stammering. Legally, you don't pass a judgement without a copy or written statement (declaratives) signed for action or inaction. 2. INEC claims its action is based on the judgement of the appeal court that ADC should return to the situation before the war (before Mark and Aregbe became ADC leaders). Good. You know what INEC did? It wiped out all the leaders on the ADC from their portal without recognizing Nwosu the original ADC chairman who has been saying APC is pestering him with billions but he refused. 3. INEC, APC, Wike most laughably now recognize Nafiu Bala who is just one of the regional deputies in a country that has six regions. Shockingly, what APC and Wike say is what INEC is saying.
If you look at the whole situation, INEC, Wike and APC acted hastily like thieves and messed up big time. It all speaks of desperation of TInubu who has been rejected by Nigerians. Tell me why ADC should worry. You see no one is leaving and more people especially in the North are joining every day. The protests and many more come are all attempt to expose the corrupt and bias INEC and show how undemocratic TInubu is. TInubu should start packing his load because nothing will save him. ADC won't go to court. Everything will be handled lawfully on the street. 2023 was an eye-opener, it won't happen again.
