2027: Allow Real Time Electronic Transmission Of Results – APC Chieftain Challenges Tinubu

Image
Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, a former National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New Peoples Democratic Party (nPDP), has urged President Bola Tinubu to demonstrate courage by permitting the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to implement real-time electronic transmission of election results. Eze wondered why a President who claims to be popular, and to have won the 2023 presidential poll, is now afraid to allow the electronic transmission of election results. In a statement on Thursday, Eze reminded Tinubu and the Senate led by Godswill Akpabio that the conduct of 2027 general elections is sacrosanct. “The 2027 poll is all about liberating Nigerians from the shackles of bad governance occasioned by obnoxious and anti people’s policies of the Tinubu-led APC administration. “Even with the coercion of almost all the governors into the ruling party, Mr President has continued to lose sleep over the general election and is doing everything humanly possible to win the 202...

Image
The leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ona-Ara Local Government, under Chairman Alfa Kehinde Adeyemo, has categorically debunked claims of endorsing any candidate for the Egbeda/Ona-Ara Federal Constituency seat ahead of the 2027 general elections. This statement comes in response to an individual falsely parading himself as having received the endorsement of Ona-Ara stakeholders for his representative aspirations.

BASA and the Oyo 2027 Question: Why Capacity, Compassion and Courage Matter Now

Image
As Oyo State gradually moves toward the 2027 governorship election, the political atmosphere is becoming clearer, louder, and more consequential. Across Ibadan, Oke-Ogun, Ogbomoso, Ibarapa, and Oyo zones, conversations are shifting from speculation to substance. The central question is no longer who wants to govern, but who is truly prepared to lead Oyo State forward. The era when ambition alone could qualify anyone for leadership is steadily fading. Today’s Oyo electorate is more politically conscious, more demanding, and less tolerant of governance by improvisation. Citizens now seek leadership rooted in experience, empathy, and verifiable service, not political entitlement or recycled rhetoric. Against this backdrop, Hon. Bolanle Aminat Sarumi–Aliyu (BASA) has emerged as a defining voice in the unfolding Oyo 2027 conversation. BASA’s political journey reflects consistency rather than convenience. As a former Governorship Candidate, grassroots mobiliser, and former Senior...
