NDC IS A PARTY BUILT ON DECEIT.
Listen to the words of the vice presidential candidate of the NDC, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso:
1. “Northern voters will not vote for a Southeasterner."
2. “Northern voters are not comfortable with the South East”
3. “As long as you want Northern votes, Peter Obi must be VP not top of ballot”
4. “If I agree to be VP to Obi, he will lose and I will lose”.
Kwankwaso is not interest in this Okirika ticket, he's only making way for 2031.
No sugar added.
They are celebrating a court order not a ruling, because its against ADC.
Obidients are not fighting against the present administration(Bola Tinubu) but against Atiku and Ameachi.
Know this and have peace.
So after fuel subsidy removal, floating the naira, rising food prices, higher transport fares, electricity tariff pressure, school fees pressure, rent pressure and general hardship, Tinubu’s APC government is reportedly preparing to add more fuel and telecom taxes in the name of raising revenue.
At this point, the question is simple:
Are you still standing on the mandate, or the mandate is now standing on your neck?
Nigerians were told to be patient. They were told the pain was temporary. They were told reforms would bring relief. But every few months, the same government returns with another burden for the same struggling people.
Fuel affects transport. Transport affects food. Food affects every home. Telecom affects communication, business, banking, POS transactions, online work, students, traders, families and even emergency calls. In today’s Nigeria, taxing fuel and telecom is not just taxing luxury. It is taxing survival.
This is the same country where salaries have not caught up with inflation, small businesses are suffocating, families are reducing meals, and young people are hustling just to remain afloat. Yet government’s easiest idea is still to squeeze citizens harder.
Where is the sacrifice from government?
Where is the cut in waste?
Where is the reduction in luxury convoys?
Where is the serious war against corruption?
Where is the accountability for billions already collected?
You cannot keep punishing citizens for the failure of leadership and call it reform. Reform without relief is punishment. Revenue without responsibility is exploitation. Taxation without visible improvement is daylight wickedness.
Tinubu’s APC government cannot keep treating Nigerians like an ATM machine for failed policies. The people are tired. The suffering is real. The anger is growing.
So again, ask them gently:
Are you still standing on the mandate, or you are now using the mandate to buy fuel, data and garri at the same time?
Data is brutal.
Short viral tweet:
After subsidy removal, naira float, food inflation and hardship, FG still wants more fuel and telecom taxes?
Are you still standing on the mandate, or the mandate is standing on your neck?
Follow-up tweet:
You cannot tax fuel, tax data, tax survival, tax movement and still tell people to clap for reform.
A government that keeps raising revenue from suffering citizens must first show where the old revenue went.
At what point did you realize this “mandate” had become a monthly subscription to hardship?
Queen Bee, rest. Kenneth Okonkwo does not owe Peter Obi an apology for refusing to remain a lifetime microphone.
This is the problem with some people: when Kenneth was defending Obi on every TV station, he was “brilliant,” “fearless,” “principled,” and “the voice of truth.” The moment he disagreed with Obi and moved with his conscience, suddenly he became someone who must “apologize.”
Apologize for what exactly? For having political independence? For refusing to worship a man? For joining ADC? For deciding that Nigeria is bigger than one candidate’s emotional fan club?
Kenneth Okonkwo is not a houseboy in anybody’s movement. He is a grown man, a lawyer, a public figure, and a politician with the right to choose his own path. If Obi and Chief Achike Udenwa have a case, let the court handle it. But this attempt to bully him into public surrender is just political heartbreak dressed as wise counsel.
And please, this tired “Atiku will go back to Dubai” line has expired. You people said worse in 2023 and still ended up crying over structure, polling units, agents, alliances and arithmetic. Politics is not choir practice. It is calculation, coalition and capacity.
The real issue is not Kenneth. The real issue is that Obi’s camp lost one of its strongest public defenders, and the pain is showing. You people miss Kenneth’s voice more than Obi misses structure. Heal first. 🤣
Kenneth does not need to beg anybody to exist politically. He has moved. ADC has moved. Nigeria’s politics has moved.
Those still waiting for him to return and sing “Yes Daddy” should reduce the volume of their bitterness.
“Akpabio is paranoid about everything that has to do with me. Everybody in the Senate knows that if Sen. Akpabio has his way, he will lock me out of the Senate because he has misled himself into thinking that I’m probably the devil he knows. However, there are many angels he doesn’t know, and the 11th Senate will not be like the 10th Senate. Senators are grumbling about his style of leadership.”
- Senator Adams Oshiomhole
This is a frivolous lawsuit. The burden of proof is on the plaintiff to prove the allegations were false
Hence, it is only a defamation if the allegations were false, thus it behooves @PeterObi to show this to the court
Statistically, defamation lawsuits are difficult to win
PRESS STATEMENT
OFFICE OF THE NATIONAL PUBLICITY SECRETARY,
NIGERIA DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS (NDC)
Second NEC Resolutions: NDC Takes Major Steps Towards Institutionalization
1. The NDC is committed to building the party as a strong and enduring institution, with emphasis on party supremacy. The programs, policies, and appointments (except personal staff) of all governments elected on the platform of the party must be made in consultation with the party structure.
The party remains supreme, and members are expected to align their personal interests and agendas with those of the party.
2. All affiliated groups and NGOs shall operate under the guidance and control of the party and must not function in parallel with, or independently of, the party structure.
3. A comprehensive Code of Conduct shall be established for all party officials and candidates. To this end, a committee has been constituted under the leadership of the National Legal Adviser to develop the framework and guidelines.
4. A National Reconciliation Committee has been inaugurated to reconcile all aggrieved members of the party.
5. The NDC is being built as an institution, not a personality cult, political movement, or Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) to be used and discarded.
Members are encouraged to remain committed to the party and contribute to its growth and sustainability for generations to come.
At all times, and for all candidates and aspirants, total allegiance must be to the party and the national interest.
On financial probity, the party will enforce strict accountability in the management of party resources by all officers, and party funds must be used strictly for party business.
For candidates, there must also be strict accountability for all funding received. Monies sourced by candidates at all levels, and contributions made by candidates to campaign accounts, must be fully disclosed to the party at the appropriate levels (local government, state, zonal, and national). Such funds must be received through dedicated party campaign accounts, including presidential and governorship campaign accounts of the party, as applicable.

If Peter Obi is truly the saint you people present to Nigerians, why hasn’t the LP publicly released a full account of its funding and expenses? Many Nigerians donated their hard-earned money, yet you keep saying he “doesn’t give shishi.” Transparency should not be selective.

I have just read the communique released by the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) under the leadership of His Grace Archbishop Daniel Okoh from the 2026 National Church Leaders Summit and I align with the concern and sympathies of the Church in Nigeria over the security of the lives of Nigerians.
The demand for a comprehensive review of the nation’s security architecture, enhanced intelligence gathering, stronger inter-agency cooperation, improved operational effectiveness and greater accountability in the fight against terrorism, banditry and violent crime, are all fully in line with my position on the failure of the Tinubu-led Federal Government.
It is encouraging for Nigerians to see Christians from various denominations and blocs unite in this spiritual wake-up call upon the political leadership to do better. From the Catholic Secretariat to the Christian Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (CPFN), the Organisation of African Instituted Churches to the TEKAN/ECWA and other Christian blocs in Nigeria, the declaration of a three-day period of national mourning should serve as moments of reflection for all political leaders, especially those in power with the responsibility to do better by Nigerians.
As insecurity ravages without concern for religious or ethnic differences which have been made more glaring by the 360 degrees failure of the incumbent government, I commend this noble effort to hold the ruling party accountable and encourage solidarity from all Nigerians in this regard. I enjoin other faith organisations especially of the Muslim block to lend their voices to this wake-up call.
On behalf of the political opposition whom Tinubu has ignored as well as the Nigerian people, I urge Tinubu to listen to this urgent call from CAN and diligently ponder his courses of action beyond rhetorics, at least for his remaining months in office. -AA

CONCLUSIONS OF THE 101ST MEETING OF THE NATIONAL EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING OF THE AFRICAN DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS (ADC)
1. NEC approved the results of all recently conducted primaries for State Houses of Assembly, the National Assembly, State Governors, and the Presidential elections; except those with pending appeals as at May 29, 2026, and those yet to be concluded.
2. NEC approved the extension of the tenure of the National Working Committee (NWC) for a period of 12 months from the expiry of their current tenure.
3. NEC approved the constitution of the Caretaker Committees at the Zonal, State, Local Government and Wards for a period of 12 months.
4. The NEC recognises Mallam Nasiru El-Rufai as a prisoner of conscience and calls for his immediate release.
I wish to express my profound appreciation for the privilege, which you have bestowed on me, of leading our great party, the African Democratic Congress, into the next elections as its Presidential Candidate. I am truly humbled and excited by this singular honour.
We demonstrated that while democracy is being strangled and squashed by the ruling party and its oppressive and anti-democratic government, democracy is alive and well in the African Democratic Congress. In our party, members are allowed to express their views, to have ambitions and to contest for elective positions in a free, fair and transparent process.
Our great party is a coalition built through hard work, immense sacrifices and compromises, guided by our determination to rescue our country’s democracy which is facing its greatest threat since the return to democratic rule in 1999.
As I speak, virtually all opposition political parties in the country have leadership crisis engineered by the APC government, the INEC and elements in the judiciary. And opposition figures continue to be harassed and intimidated, including those languishing in detention, such as Mallam Nasir El-Rufai who distinguished himself as a public servant, including as a Minister and two-term Governor of Kaduna State. He has been in detention for three months despite court orders granting him bail. He has been denied the right to celebrate two important religious holidays with his family in addition to being denied the opportunity to be by his mother’s side as she took her last breath. All because he is a leading opposition figure! This kind of cruelty must stop. The government continues to harass, intimidate and coerce opposition politicians to join the APC using the security agencies as well as the agencies which were set up by a previous government to fight corruption. Under this government, once a person joins the APC, the harassment ceases and the charges against them magically disappear. This abuse of power must stop.
Great care was taken to ensure that due diligence was done in the process of forming this coalition. Yet the government and the INEC continue to undermine it, even trying to deregister it. Let me warn that any further attempt to interfere in the affairs of the party by the Presidency, INEC and judiciary will be fiercely resisted. Enough is enough.
I congratulate my fellow contestants for this ticket to represent our great party in the elections scheduled for early next year. I know that you are driven by your patriotism and commitment to a better Nigeria and improved life for our people. I know that, like me, you are deeply concerned about the rapid descent of our country into economic disaster, catastrophic insecurity, extreme nepotism, political intolerance and the drive towards a one-party state by the current government and its party. I thank you for your healthy participation in this democratic process.
I must state at this juncture that this is not the time to celebrate. No one was defeated because we are one party and we all need to recognise the fierce urgency of the moment. Therefore, we have to unite, as we pledged before this process, to work to pull our country and our people out of the destructive grip of a corrupt, incompetent and polarising APC government.
I thank the primary elections Committee for organising peaceful, free, fair and transparent primaries. I thank the various leadership organs of our party, the various stakeholders, and volunteers for their hard work and dedication and all our party members and supporters for their efforts, patience and conduct during the process.
With the primaries behind us, the real hard work is about to begin. We have to prepare to campaign hard to win the next general elections in order to begin the difficult process of rescuing our country and its long-suffering people from this government.
I want to congratulate and unveil the winner of ADC presidential primaries, HE Atiku Abubakar
In fidelity to my well publicised & principled commitment to support whomever emerges as ADC flag bearer, I am officially declaring my support for Atiku Abubakar
God bless Atiku & ADC
To the NDC people, Nigerians already suffered from APC’s propaganda, lies, and manipulation in 2015. We paid heavily for it and learned quickly.
Now NDC is copying the same playbook, and in some cases doing even worse. Lies, insults, propaganda, and threats against opposition voices will not help your candidates. It only shows desperation.
This is 2026. Nigerians are wiser now. People want competence, truth, accountability, and solutions, not toxic politics and intimidation.
