In what appears to be Nigeria’s most dramatic “return on investment” complaint yet, a man on Thursday stormed the All Progressives Congress (APC) national secretariat in Abuja with a message as blunt as it was unsettling: reward me or kill me. The protest, captured in a now-viral video, shows the visibly distressed man holding a placard and demanding recognition for what he described as his personal sacrifices during the party’s 2023 campaign. According to him, loyalty was not just emotional, it was financial, physical, and, ultimately, total. In a country where political support often comes with expectations, some spoken, many implied the man’s outcry reads like a tragic audit of misplaced trust.

Supporters of Hon. Wole Oke in Ijesa North Federal Constituency have appealed to the seasoned lawmaker to allow them to fully enjoy the fruits of their labour before physically joining him in his new political alignment.
In gatherings across the constituency, several members expressed their unwavering loyalty to Hon. Wole Oke following his defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC). However, they pleaded for the opportunity to secure their pending dues and entitlements from the Adeleke-led state government before making the formal move.
A respected leader within the constituency issued a warning to party loyalists, advising them not to take any form of oath or pledge that could bind them unfairly while they pursue what is rightfully theirs. "Enjoy your fruits of labour first," he cautioned, "before making any new commitments."
The constituents reaffirmed their commitment to follow Hon. Wole Oke’s political direction, declaring boldly: "Wherever you go, we shall follow." They also emphasized their firm support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027, insisting that the PBAT 2027 project remains "non-negotiable."
The call for patience reflects a strategic grassroots movement that seeks to ensure constituents are not shortchanged in the transition, even as Wole Oke’s political base continues to gain momentum in the region.
