Former Governor of Abia State and current Senator for Abia North, Orji Uzor Kalu, has emphasized the importance of the South East aligning with Nigeria’s mainstream political landscape to maximize national benefits. In a post shared via his verified Facebook page, Senator Kalu revealed that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu expressed disappointment over receiving only 4% of votes in Abia State during the 2023 presidential election. He described the low voter turnout for the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abia as troubling, especially considering the caliber of APC leaders present in the state during the polls. Senator Kalu called on APC members across Abia State to foster unity and remain committed to ensuring victory for the party in the 2027 general elections. He explained that the stakeholders’ meeting he organized at his Abuja home aimed to rally party members and strengthen the spirit of solidarity, stressing that Governor Alex Otti was not part of their agenda. Clarifying rumors, Kalu stated he made no critical remarks about Governor Otti’s administration, reaffirming his policy of refraining from public commentary about his successors. He added that it is solely the electorate’s duty to judge and decide the performance of their leaders. Reflecting on the APC’s political performance, Kalu said: “In 2019 when I joined the APC, President Muhammadu Buhari secured 68% of the votes in our constituency. In contrast, President Tinubu managed just 4% in the entire Abia in 2023. This result left him deeply concerned. Despite having strong allies in Abia, including myself, the outcome was disappointing. I found it hard to believe as well.” He stressed that the South East must not remain isolated from the national political conversation, emphasizing: “The South East must align with where other Nigerians are politically seated.” This call for political integration comes at a time when national unity remains a critical factor in Nigeria’s progress.

Dr. Jibril Mustapha, President of the Nigeria Rescue Mission Organisation and former leader of the Buhari Youth Organisation (BYO), has passionately appealed to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan to run for Nigeria’s 2027 presidential election. Speaking in a press release issued on Sunday in Lagos, Dr. Mustapha emphasized that Jonathan’s leadership is urgently needed as the country faces multiple socio-economic crises. “As Nigeria moves towards the 2027 elections, it is crucial for all stakeholders to unite behind a candidate who genuinely represents the hopes of every Nigerian,” Mustapha asserted. He stressed the importance of rallying behind a leader capable of bridging divisions and steering the nation towards prosperity. “We sincerely call on former President Goodluck Jonathan to answer this call and step up once again as a unifying leader to guide Nigeria into a better future,” Mustapha said. Highlighting the current challenges of economic hardship, insecurity, surging unemployment, and escalating banditry across the country, Mustapha underscored the urgent demand for leadership rooted in integrity, inclusivity, and a true commitment to national unity. “Nigeria is at a critical crossroads, confronting serious threats to its stability and growth,” he added. “We need a leader who can harmonize the diverse fabric of our society and push Nigeria forward.” Reflecting on Jonathan’s previous tenure, Mustapha praised his dedication to democratic values and citizen-centered governance. He noted that Jonathan’s experience and vision position him uniquely to lead Nigeria out of its current struggles and into a promising new era.

In a major political development, Senator Chris Ekpenyong, one of the founding members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has expressed deep concern over the continued defection of key PDP figures to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). According to LMSINT MEDIA, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta State, his deputy Sir Monday Onyeme, and former governor Senator Ifeanyi Okowa have all recently switched allegiance to the APC. Their exit has heightened instability within Nigeria’s main opposition party. Speaking during an interview with Vanguard on Saturday, Senator Ekpenyong, who previously served as Deputy Governor of Akwa Ibom State from 1999 to 2007, warned that Akwa Ibom’s current governor, Umo Eno, might soon follow the same path. He attributed the mass defections to the strong political influence of President Bola Tinubu, asserting that the PDP has been effectively “captured” by the ruling party. Ekpenyong criticized the decision by PDP governors to abandon the party and blamed the situation on former Vice President Atiku Abubakar’s determination to seek the presidential ticket again. Ekpenyong remarked, “Tinubu has finished PDP. Akwa Ibom may likely be the next to fall. Many wanted Atiku to openly declare he would not contest, but his insistence forced stakeholders to realign their interests.” He emphasized that the party now faces deep divisions between the North and the South, casting doubt on PDP’s ability to regroup and effectively challenge APC in future elections. Reflecting on PDP’s decline, Ekpenyong lamented, “The party is in ruins. Rebuilding will be difficult, especially since many influential members have lost interest.” He also pointed out a historical mistake where PDP’s founding fathers, including former President Olusegun Obasanjo, allowed state governors to dominate the party structure—an error that, according to him, has significantly weakened the party. Ekpenyong further mentioned notable figures like the late Chief Sunday Awoniyi and former Vice President Alex Ekwueme, who once resisted internal takeover attempts, highlighting the lack of strong opposition voices within the PDP today.

Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni, has firmly denied any involvement in the emerging coalition of opposition leaders allegedly spearheaded by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar. In an official statement released by Alhaji Mamman Mohammed, Director-General of Press and Media Affairs, on Saturday in Damaturu, Buni emphasized his unwavering loyalty to the All Progressives Congress (APC). According to a report by LMSINT MEDIA, rumors circulated through a viral text message suggesting that Buni, along with four other APC governors, had finalized plans to defect to the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) ahead of the 2027 general elections. However, Mohammed categorically dismissed these claims, labeling them as baseless fabrications and mere assumptions that have no basis in reality.He criticized the author of the viral text for having no credible connection to Governor Buni, arguing that no individual close to the governor could ever accurately predict his political trajectory. “Governor Mai Mala Buni is not just an APC governor; he embodies the spirit of the APC,” Mohammed stressed.He highlighted Buni’s exceptional contributions to the party, noting his pivotal roles as a two-term National Secretary and as the Chairman of the APC Convention Committee. These achievements, Mohammed argued, make any speculation about Buni abandoning the APC not just unlikely but entirely illogical. The statement concluded by suggesting that the perpetrators of the rumors might be admirers of Buni’s political strategies who merely wish to see him aligned with their interests — describing such hopes as mere wishful thinking.

Dan Ulasi, the former chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Anambra State, has called on the party to consider reaching out to former Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, to rejoin the party. Obi, who served as the PDP’s vice-presidential candidate in the 2019 elections alongside Atiku Abubakar, saw the party lose to the then-President Muhammadu Buhari. In the 2023 presidential race, Obi left the PDP to join LP, where he became the party’s flagbearer. Although Obi garnered significant support, coming third in the election, he trailed behind the winner, President Bola Tinubu, and Atiku Abubakar of the PDP. Recently, the PDP has faced challenges of disintegration, with key figures like Ifeanyi Okowa, the former vice-presidential running mate, and Governor Sheriff Oborevwori defecting to the All Progressives Congress (APC). These defections have fueled speculations about the possible collapse of the opposition party, which had already faced a series of internal conflicts. Before their defection, Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi, and other opposition leaders had planned to form a coalition aimed at challenging Tinubu’s administration in 2027. However, the PDP Governors Forum has made it clear that it will not be part of Atiku’s proposed coalition. Despite the political turmoil, Ulasi believes that Obi’s return to the PDP could be a positive move. On Arise Television’s Morning Show, he emphasized: “Peter Obi is a progressive figure. He received over six million votes in the last presidential election, and if the PDP is free of internal power struggles, Obi should be openly approached.” Ulasi further remarked that what Nigeria needs is competent leadership with integrity and honor, qualities that he believes Obi exemplifies. He also expressed his confidence in his ability to facilitate discussions with Obi, should the PDP decide to engage him in talks about the country’s future. Addressing the issue of governors defecting to the APC, Ulasi stated that it would be disgraceful for PDP governors to leave the party without being held accountable for their governance. “I would like to see them explain their accomplishments after eight years in office,” Ulasi said.

Segun Adewale, a prominent figure within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and former Lagos State chairman, has described former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar as the “messiah” Nigeria urgently needs to resolve its economic challenges. In a recent interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos, Adewale firmly stated that Abubakar should not be dismissed politically or asked to leave the PDP. He expressed that critics of Abubakar’s presidential aspirations, including former PDP Deputy National Chairman Chief Olabode George and former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose, were wrong in advising the ex-VP not to run on the PDP platform in 2027. George had recently called for Abubakar’s immediate resignation from the PDP, accusing him of anti-party activities, while Fayose has declared that he would work against Abubakar’s presidential ambition if he chooses to contest in 2027. However, Adewale, popularly known as Aeroland, countered these claims, asserting that Abubakar’s political journey should not be dictated by anyone. According to Adewale, Abubakar’s dedication to Nigeria and his extensive experience in governance make him a crucial figure for the country’s future. “He has been tested and tried and remains one of the few politicians who are content with their accomplishments, never motivated by the desire for wealth,” Adewale noted. He further criticized other politicians who, in his view, seek power for personal gain rather than the betterment of the nation. Adewale lamented the opposition within the PDP itself, with members of the party working against Abubakar’s coalition efforts to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and reclaim power for the PDP. “Anyone in the PDP opposing Atiku’s 2027 presidential bid is working against the party and Nigeria. They are driven by personal interest, not the country’s welfare,” Adewale emphasized. He also stated that no opposition party, including the Labour Party’s Peter Obi, could defeat the APC on its own, calling for a significant overhaul of Nigeria’s electoral system to strengthen democracy. Adewale recalled his personal experience with alleged electoral injustices in Lagos, highlighting the flaws in the current system. “The issue is not about individual popularity or intelligence; it’s about the system. We need to work together to fix the system before the 2027 elections,” Adewale stressed. He concluded by pointing out that Nigerians are tired of poor governance and are calling for change and a fresh approach.

Dan Ulasi, a former Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Anambra State, has described President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as a strategic political figure whose influence should not be dismissed, especially amid ongoing defections within the opposition party. Ulasi made these remarks during a recent appearance on Arise TV’s Morning Show, responding to the wave of high-profile defections from the PDP to the All Progressives Congress (APC). Among the prominent figures who have recently crossed over are former PDP Vice Presidential candidate Ifeanyi Okowa and Governor Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta State. Ulasi expressed concern over these developments, noting that additional PDP governors may soon join the ruling APC, especially in light of the internal crisis surrounding the PDP Governors Forum’s rejection of the coalition formed by Atiku Abubakar, the party’s former presidential candidate. “The PDP must reassess its direction and begin building resilient political structures across all levels,” Ulasi emphasized. He recalled a statement made two decades ago by the late Vincent Ogbulafor, former PDP National Chairman, who confidently claimed the party would govern Nigeria for 60 years. “Those bold declarations are no longer credible in the face of present realities,” Ulasi noted. Criticizing Tinubu’s international travels amid domestic crises such as killings in Makurdi and Plateau, Ulasi questioned the judgment of political leaders abandoning their parties for the APC without clear justification. Nevertheless, he acknowledged Tinubu’s long-standing political resilience: “I give Tinubu credit where it’s due. He is a seasoned political strategist. During his tenure as Lagos State Governor under President Obasanjo’s administration, he resisted relentless efforts by the PDP to oust him. While they succeeded in five other states, Tinubu completed his full tenure.” Ulasi urged PDP members to focus on long-term goals and internal party development instead of waiting for election cycles before scrambling for leadership roles. “Without a grassroots-oriented party structure, there’s no way to mobilize voters effectively,” he concluded. ?

Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has openly accused President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of violating Nigeria’s constitution over his handling of the political crisis in Rivers State. Amaechi expressed strong concern about what he described as the unconstitutional removal of Governor Siminalayi Fubara and the subsequent declaration of a state of emergency, actions he believes undermine the rule of law and democratic values in the country. Speaking at the 9th Annual Leadership Discourse hosted by the Akinjide Adeosun Foundation (AAF) in Lagos, themed “Fearless Leadership: A Panacea for Sustainable Development”, the former Rivers State Governor criticized the decision as a breach of the country’s highest legal authority—the Constitution. Amaechi Blasts Weak National Assembly Amaechi did not only criticize the president but also expressed deep disappointment in the National Assembly, which he labeled a “very weak institution” for allegedly aiding and abetting what he termed the installation of an unconstitutional government in Rivers State. “In a system where leaders act on their whims rather than the law, governance becomes tyrannical,” he said. “The current state of emergency declared in Rivers State is not just illegal—it violates the very sacredness of our Constitution.” He continued, “What we are witnessing is not merely a disregard for legal principles, but a complete breakdown of constitutional order. The president didn’t just break the law; he broke the Nigerian Constitution.” Violation of Democratic Norms Rotimi Amaechi likened the Nigerian Constitution to a sacred document, comparing it to a nation’s Bible, whose sanctity should not be compromised. He lamented that despite the removal of a duly elected governor and the appointment of a retired military officer, Ibok-Ete Ibas, as an administrator, there has been no public accountability or major institutional resistance. “The removal of an elected governor and his deputy, followed by appointing a military administrator, signals a dangerous drift away from democracy,” Amaechi warned. Background on the Rivers State Crisis The crisis in Rivers State escalated in recent weeks following political disagreements within the state assembly. In response, President Tinubu declared a state of emergency, suspended the governor and his deputy, and installed a military administrator. This move has sparked outrage among political analysts, civil society groups, and opposition leaders across the country.

In a surprising political turn, Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori has officially left the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to join the All Progressives Congress (APC). This move was confirmed after a private meeting held at the Government House in Asaba on Wednesday, signaling a major political realignment in Delta, a historically PDP-dominated state. LMSINT MEDIA gathered that Oborevwori’s defection follows a trend of political shifts witnessed over the last decade, where serving governors have crossed party lines, particularly from PDP to APC, seeking broader political alliances, federal influence, or development opportunities. A Decade of Political Crossovers: PDP Governors Who Joined APC Let’s take a closer look at the list of sitting Nigerian governors who defected from PDP to APC while still holding office, reflecting the dynamic nature of the country’s political landscape. 1. Sheriff Oborevwori (Delta State) The most recent defector, Oborevwori’s move to the APC echoes that of his predecessor, Ifeanyi Okowa, signaling a dramatic shift in Delta State’s political allegiance after decades under PDP leadership. 2. Dave Umahi (Ebonyi State) In November 2020, Dave Umahi left PDP during his second term to embrace the APC, praising the infrastructure strides made under then-President Muhammadu Buhari. Umahi also cited the Southeast’s marginalisation as a key reason for the switch. 3. Bello Matawalle (Zamfara State) In June 2021, amid political unrest in Zamfara, Governor Matawalle defected to APC, aiming to consolidate power and establish stronger ties with the ruling party at the center. 4. Ben Ayade (Cross River State) Ayade, in May 2021, announced his defection from PDP to APC. He explained his alignment with the federal government was necessary to fast-track development efforts across Cross River State. 5. Aminu Tambuwal (Sokoto State) Tambuwal initially switched to APC prior to the 2015 elections, though he returned to PDP in 2018. Despite this, he remained a central figure in discussions about possible re-defection during his time in office. 6. Aliyu Wamakko (Sokoto State) In 2014, while still serving as governor, Wamakko defected from PDP to APC, contributing to the significant momentum that led to APC’s eventual victory in the 2015 general elections. 7. Abdulfatah Ahmed (Kwara State) Also in 2014, Ahmed switched to APC, though he later returned to the PDP. His temporary alliance with the ruling party helped strengthen the APC’s foothold in the North Central region at the time. APC Chairman: More Governors to Join Before 2027 Elections Speaking in Abuja, APC National Chairman Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje hinted that more opposition governors are preparing to join APC ahead of the 2027 general elections. This statement came during a formal event welcoming key leaders from the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in Kano State, including Senator Kawu Ismailia representing Kano South.

Conclusion As political realignments continue ahead of future elections, these high-profile defections signify a changing political narrative in Nigeria.

The political landscape in Nigeria is witnessing a transformative shift as more state governors are reportedly preparing to defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC), the nation’s ruling party. Recently, the Governor of Delta State, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, captured national attention after announcing his departure from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to join the APC. His move has intensified political conversations and forecasts ahead of the anticipated 2027 general elections. In a recent interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State confirmed that Governor Oborevwori’s defection is not an isolated case. He hinted that a number of other governors are also in advanced stages of negotiation and may soon declare their support for the APC. Governor Sule noted that the increasing number of political defections is largely due to the visionary reforms and governance style of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. According to him, many political actors admire the president’s commitment to inclusion, stability, and reform. He stated that these qualities are drawing influential leaders from various political parties to the APC. “During high-level meetings with President Tinubu, the energy among attendees is palpable. The governors feel a sense of appreciation and recognition that’s been missing elsewhere,” Governor Sule remarked. Although the exact figure of governors expected to cross over remains uncertain, insider sources suggest a significant number of state leaders are contemplating the move. Political analysts believe that this trend could lead to a dramatic realignment in Nigeria’s party politics as the 2027 elections approach. This ongoing political shift underscores the APC’s growing dominance and could potentially reshape power dynamics across the federation.
