•••• Alleges Internal Sabotage, Declares for PDP Ahead of 2027 Oyo Guber Race Former House of Representatives member, Saheed Akinade-Fijabi, has formally announced his defection from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), citing internal marginalization and what he described as “clear body language” from party leaders pushing him out. Fijabi, now a governorship aspirant under the PDP for the 2027 Oyo State election, made the declaration while addressing political developments surrounding his exit from the APC and his new political alignment. He recounted a controversial episode at the APC Youth Summit in Oyo State, where he said he voluntarily walked out to avoid escalating tensions. “I walked out myself. If I wanted to sit down, I would have sat down and nothing would have happened, but being a reasonable person, I didn’t want to create an unfortunate scene,” he said. Fijabi also made strong allegations against some APC leaders, claiming...

INEC DISMISSES CALLS FOR CHAIRMAN’S REMOVAL; SAYS IT WILL BE A DIRECT ASSAULT ON ITS INDEPENDENCE

Image
INEC chairman, Prof. Joash Amupitan says Any call for his removal outside the established constitutional process is not only a distraction but a direct assault on the independence of the nation’s electoral umpire. A statement by the Chief press secretary to the INEC chairman, Adedayo Oketola notes that While a political party or a group is allowed to protect their interest, the Commission decided to comply with the Judgment of the Court of Appeal to avert a situation that occurred in Zamfara and Plateau States where elected officials were removed by the Election Tribunal on account of disobedience to Court Judgment.  The statement further adds that Proceeding to monitor the congress and convention of the David Mark-led ADC would amount to a disobedience to the court order since the relief claimed in the Originating Summons and other court processes filed include an order restraining INEC from monitoring any meeting, congress and convention of the party.

PDP LEADERSHIP TUSSLE: THE SUPREME COURT WILL HAVE THE LAST SAY

Image
With the series of disturbing activities occurring in succession within the last 48 hours, genuine members of the Peoples Democratic Party across the country have expressed their concerns and are asking what the future holds for the party and our country’s democracy, by extension. To them, and other fair-minded, democracy-loving Nigerians, we reassure that we have taken this battle to the Supreme Court for the determination of all the issues relating to the leadership of our party, particularly as it relates to what constitutes an internal affair. With this appeal and the relevant concomitant applications filed and served on all the parties involved, we are hopeful that sooner, rather than later, the apex court will, in the interest of democracy, expeditiously hear and adjudicate on this matter. For the avoidance of doubt, we state that the pre-Easter jamboree of APC sympathisers and members of “Wike’s Autocratic Party”, which they mischievously tagged a PDP convention, was...
