Atiku Pushes Constitutional Power Shift, Vows Rotational Presidency If Elected in 2027

 Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar has pledged to pursue a constitutional amendment that would formally establish rotational presidency in Nigeria if he emerges victorious in the 2027 presidential election. Speaking during an appearance on Prime Time, a programme on Arise Television, Atiku made a strong case for institutionalizing zoning, describing it as a pathway to fairness, inclusion, and long-term political stability. According to him, embedding rotational presidency in the constitution would eliminate ambiguity around power-sharing and ensure that all regions of the country feel adequately represented at the highest level of governance. “If I am president, even if it is the only amendment I can make, I would move towards that,” he stated, underscoring the priority he places on the reform. Atiku further argued that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) remains unique among political parties in Nigeria for having a zoning framework already enshrined in its constitution. He sugg...

Wole Oke Turns Away from the Noise, Fixes His Gaze on APC’s 2026 Victory

 

— From the Wole Oke Constituency Office



Honourable Wole Oke has dismissed recent commentaries directed at him, saying his attention remains firmly on the All Progressives Congress’ (APC) quest for victory in the 2026 gubernatorial election.

In a statement issued by his Constituency Office, Oke noted that he is “too serious and fully focused” on ensuring the success of the APC, stressing that he will not be distracted by speculations, provocations, or premature political debates.



The lawmaker has recently become the subject of repeated attacks from members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), following his defection to the APC. Party sources and political observers note that his exit has significantly weakened the PDP’s political structure in parts of the state, a development believed to have triggered sustained criticism from some party figures.






According to the statement, Oke considers the growing attention from his critics as a reflection of the political impact of his decision to join the APC, rather than a matter requiring personal engagement.

“He remains committed to party unity and mobilisation ahead of the 2026 governorship election,” the statement said, adding that his focus is on strengthening the APC across the constituency and beyond.



The statement further noted that Oke believes elections are won through organisation, discipline, and collective effort, not through media exchanges or personal attacks.



As political activities gradually build toward 2026, the Constituency Office reaffirmed that the lawmaker will continue to prioritise party cohesion and electoral success, while avoiding distractions that do not advance the APC’s broader objectives.

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

BREAKING: PDP Bleeds in Oriade: Commissioner Loses 14 Party Leaders to Wole Oke in Home Ward

In a significant political shift, 14 grassroots leaders, including prominent women and youth coordinators from Ward 11, covering Ijeda and Iloko in Oriade Local Government Area of Osun State, have resigned from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and pledged allegiance to Hon. Wole Oke’s growing political camp in the All Progressives Congress (APC). The mass resignation, formalized in a jointly signed letter, marks a deepening crack within the PDP structure in Oriade, as key mobilizers abandon the party over what they describe as years of marginalization, poor internal democracy, and a lack of direction. Their defection is also seen as a major boost to Wole Oke’s political momentum within the APC, following his recent and controversial departure from the PDP. “We are grateful for the opportunities and experiences we had as PDP members,” the group stated, “but the party no longer reflects our values or aspirations. We believe in Hon. Wole Oke’s leadership and vision, and we are proud to...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
