When you want to unseat an incumbent who has governed badly but has captured state institutions, you look for enthusiasm and populism. You do not look for inertia and institutional pedigree.
Apostle Johnson Suleman is back with another powerful truth. He has urged Nigerians not to vote for Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He said four years is enough. Sermons like this should go viral. 👏
Appeal to Twitter People
Please try hard to use precise words. It has implications for public intelligence and political actions.
If someone makes you angry, call him annoying or obnoxious, not sexist, racist or fascist.
If someone makes an argument you think does not make sense, call him unintelligent, not terrorist.
Always use the right words. It improves your own intelligence; and helps public discourse
If ADC makes the mistake the PDP made in 2023 by NOT picking a southern candidate, they will lose in both north and south and also die like PDP — Mojeed Dahiru
ME: This was how this man kept warning PDP in 2023 but they didn't listen and now there's nothing like PDP again. Now he's warning ADC, let's hope ADC will learn.
@Big_Sinudo That would be disaster, ADC needs Peter Obi and Peter Obi needs the ADC coalition. Peter Obi remains the best shot the opposition has to power
Serving as running mate to @Atiku Abubakar is no ordinary privilege. It is a rare political blessing few can claim.
In 2019, Atiku picked Peter Obi and promptly Obi blew into national limelight like Timaya’s plantain boy track. Though their 2023 paths diverged, Obi’s earlier association with Atiku undeniably boosted his stature.
Similarly, after losing the 2022 PDP presidential primaries, Nyesom Wike made no secret of his intense desire to pair with Atiku, underscoring the magnetic pull of AA. Unable to get the golden VP ticket, Wike did what any jilted lover would do. He declared total war on his own party and everyone in it.
As the battle for 2027 rages, Atiku’s enduring drawing power remains evident. Whether it is Peter Obi fighting for the slot again or Oyo Governor Seyi Makinde emerging as a formidable alternative, one thing is clear: Atiku continues to sit at the heart of serious opposition calculations.
@Atiku who has consistently attracted top talent knows how to build coalitions and that experience may prove decisive in the battles ahead.
On consensus:
"Opposition coalition parties that successfully rallied behind a single consensus candidate and went on to win decisive elections are relatively rare, and when they do succeed, it is usually because the following three conditions align at once:
Atiku will be worse than Tinubu, he hasn't entered but he's already lining people up at the airport to shake his hands.
Nigeria has not benefited from the Big men self entitled politicians.
Please stop!
U want Atiku, who couldn't muster 7m votes as PDP flagbearer with 13 govs, senators, and HOR members, ahead of Obi, who with a little known labour party with no councillor got 6m votes.
Atiku's politics is similar to Tinubu's. He can't beat an incumbent
This table should be a guide to discerning minds.
In 2023 Obi could only get 20% in Kaduna in the NW courtesy of Christians votes, outside that he could not get 2% in any state of the NW.
Kwankwaso who is from NW could only get 10% from one state Jigawa outside his home state of Kano, he couldn't get 1% in Sokoto or Kebbi .
This report card should be a lesson for voters as we move towards ADC Primaries
Open Letter to the Leaders of the ADC and the Broader Opposition Stakeholders
Dear Esteemed Leaders,
Nigeria stands at a defining crossroads. The incumbent administration under President Bola Tinubu has presided over deepening hardship, mounting insecurity, and a crisis of public trust. The 2027 presidential election offers us a historic opportunity, not merely to field a candidate, but to rally the entire opposition behind a figure who can unify our fractured nation, ignite mass participation, and deliver victory. That figure is Peter Obi.
We urge you, without hesitation, to adopt Peter Obi as the ADC’s preferred presidential candidate and the unifying banner of the opposition. His candidacy is not just strategic but also it is transformative. Here is why it represents our clearest path to victory:
1. National Unity and Healing:
Peter Obi’s appeal transcends ethnicity, religion, and region. An Igbo leader who has already built unprecedented bridges to the North, South-West, and South-South, he alone can heal the dangerous North-South divide that has weakened our democracy for decades. Unity is not a slogan; it is the indispensable foundation for national development. By choosing Obi, the ADC sends an unmistakable message: this is no longer a sectional contest but it is a Nigerian project.
2. Massive Youth and New-Voter Mobilization:
With his energy, digital fluency, and authentic connection to Nigerians, Obi will galvanize millions of first-time and young voters who sat out previous elections. His campaign will be exciting, issue-driven, and hopeful turning apathy into enthusiasm and making 2027 the most participatory election in Nigeria’s history.
3. Issue-Based, Cost-Effective, and Mass-Connecting Campaign:
Obi does not campaign on privilege or money politics. His platform is built on clear, data-driven solutions: security, education, health, and moving “from consumption to production.” His campaigns are lean, transparent, and deeply relatable, allowing ordinary Nigerians to see themselves in the movement. This approach will stretch every naira further and earn the trust of voters tired of expensive, elite-driven politics.
4. Organic Grassroots Strength That Cannot Be Bought:
Peter Obi’s support base is not transactional. His polling-unit agents, volunteers, and foot soldiers come from a committed, organic following that is almost impossible to compromise or rig. Non-political “fixers” will have no votes to sell. This structural integrity is a decisive advantage in an electoral environment where money often decides outcomes.
5. Relentless 8-Month Campaign Machine:
Eight months is more than enough time for Peter Obi. He will campaign every single day from town halls, markets, churches, mosques, universities, and radio stations while others tire or outsource their visibility. His humility and respect for all will attract thousands of passionate workers who will volunteer their time, energy, and networks.
6. Diaspora Leverage and International Goodwill:
Obi’s strong connections with Nigerians in the diaspora will translate into massive financial, intellectual, and advocacy support that will reverberate back home. Simultaneously, his credibility will draw international development partners who are eager to invest in a stable, reform-minded Nigeria, enhancing both campaign resources and post-election governance capacity.
7. Media Dominance and Vision Clarity:
Through consistent engagement on television, radio, and social media, Obi will make the ADC’s vision crystal clear to every voter. His articulate, evidence-based communication style will dominate the airwaves, leaving opponents struggling to match his visibility and substance.
8. Contagious Enthusiasm That Will Fill the Streets:
The excitement Obi generates is infectious. It will put people on the streets, in convoys, and in every corner of the federation, turning the campaign into a national movement rather than a mere political exercise.
IBADAN DECLARATION
Communiqué issued at the end of Opposition Political Parties National Summit held on Saturday April 25, 2026 in Ibadan, Oyo State.
Participating Opposition Parties in Nigeria, after an extensive deliberation on the collective threats that we face and the existential challenges facing our country under the stranglehold of the oppressive and anti-democratic All Progressives Congress (APC) and given the need for urgent, collective action to rescue our nation and the destiny of over 200 million compatriots, hereby resolve as follows:
1. That we shall resist all machinations by the APC to foist a one-party State on Nigeria and fight for the survival of multi-party democracy in our country.
2. That despite the onslaughts and manoeuvrings of the ruling party, the APC to impose President Bola Tinubu as the sole Presidential candidate in 2027; we shall field candidates and contest the 2027 Presidential and other elections.
3. That we shall work towards fielding one Presidential Candidate for the 2027 elections, which shall be agreed and supported by all participating opposition parties to rescue our nation and her long suffering masses.
4. That the INEC Chairman, Prof. Joash Ojo Amupitan, having shown bias and partisanship in favour of the ruling APC, should not conduct the 2027 general elections as Nigerians across board have lost confidence in him and his capacity to guarantee the required neutrality to deliver free, fair, transparent and credible elections. His continuous stay in office is vexatious and capable of triggering wide spread crisis in our nation.
5. That the National Assembly should immediately review the Electoral Act, 2026 to remove all sections that threaten the sanctity and integrity of the elections and run counter to constitutional provisions.
6. That all leading politicians that are being detained or harassed on bailable offfences be released with immediate effect and allowed to exercise their fundamental rights of participation and inclusivity as Nigerians.
7. That we consider the recent guidelines released by the INEC as obstacles, deliberately engineered to impose conditions and deadlines on the opposition parties. We therefore demand that INEC extends the deadline for primaries till the end of July, 2026.
8. The Summit commends Nigerians for their resilience and readiness to work with Opposition Parties to free our nation from State capture.
9. The National summit of Opposition Political Parties thank the Oyo State Governor Engr. Seyi Makinde and the people of Oyo State for hosting the epochal event.

It is an absolute shame that the Christian church in Nigeria has become a platform for thieves, criminals and heartless wicked politicians.
This message here is long long overdue.
I wish every Nigerian will see this video
