OSUN AND THE NEED TO SET NEW BOUNDARIES FOR POLITICAL CONDUCT IN OFF-CYCLE ELECTIONS

The outcome of the recent governorship election in Osun State demonstrates that, despite the challenges confronting our democracy, we possess the capacity to conduct elections in a manner that strengthens public confidence in our democratic institutions.

I therefore commend the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), the security agencies, political parties and, most importantly, the people of Osun State for the peaceful conduct of the recent governorship election.

While we commend the electoral process itself, there are developments surrounding the election and, more importantly, an emerging trend in political conduct during off-cycle elections that raises concerns.

The growing practice whereby serving governors, senior political office holders, party leaders and other influential government functionaries, accompanied by large numbers of aides and heavy security details from outside a state, converge on states where elections are being conducted raises an issue that demands national attention.

The conduct witnessed around the recent elections in Osun, Ekiti and Ondo States was, in my view, unusual. It is not a practice that should become normal in a democratic society.
I recall that, as President, similar situations arose during the 2013 Anambra and 2014 Ekiti governorship elections. On those occasions, senior political leaders mobilised and descended upon the states. Upon being briefed, I ordered party leaders and senior government officials to leave the states immediately.

This trend is unwholesome. If left unchecked, it could threaten our fragile democracy and have serious long-term implications for democratic stability.

Political parties are entitled to campaign, mobilise their supporters and deploy their legitimate party structures. That is an essential part of democracy. However, there is a point at which political mobilisation, particularly when it involves the overwhelming presence of serving governors, senior public officials and powerful political actors from across the country on election day, can create an atmosphere of apprehension, intimidation, bullying and undue pressure.

We must ask ourselves whether the increasing deployment of political power and large-scale mobilisation by senior office holders on election day in states holding elections is consistent with the spirit of free, fair and peaceful democratic competition.

This hardly happens in other democratic countries.
We must not allow political competition to become a contest in which victory is perceived as something that must be achieved at all costs.

There is also the question of precedent. If the current trend becomes established, what happens when governors from opposing political parties begin to descend on every state holding a competitive election? What happens when each party seeks to match political power with political power, governmental influence with governmental influence, and mobilisation with counter-mobilisation?

Such a development would not strengthen our democracy. It would deepen political tensions and could make elections increasingly resemble battles for political survival rather than peaceful contests for the mandate of the people.

I therefore believe that this matter should not be treated as a partisan dispute concerning the Osun election. It is a broader national issue concerning the future of our electoral democracy.

Those of us who have occupied public office must recognise that our conduct carries a greater responsibility. The power and influence attached to public office should be used to strengthen democratic institutions, not to create apprehension among political opponents or citizens.

Some of us might have started our stock investing journey for the first time in January 2026 because the gains in prior months were really enticing.

The last five months have been fantastic as well, until this month that everything has been blurry.

My gist this morning is that you should calm down. Do not panic about anything. You most likely have not made a mistake.

To help you understand how things work in the equities market, I have shown you a list of some companies (solid coys, by the way) and their closing stock prices every year since 2018. I used 2018 as my base year because:

✑ The trend is sufficient to incorporate different economic cycles

✑ It was the year that foreign investors started to leave Nigeria.

Hence, I am showing you the performance of these stocks even in the worst market periods.

The least performer there is Nestlé, which has done 2x or 10% per year since 2018. You can see the range of returns across the listed names and across their respective sectors.

On average, the combined listed stocks did +36% price gain every year. And this excludes dividends.

So what is my point?

Do not panic. Do not fret. The red and blurry scenes are part of it, as long as you are invested in very good, solid, and sound companies.

You’d be fine. So open that @cowrywise app and keep buying more.

You know, I been seeing various commentaries about the current valuation of the Nigerian markets and its associated risks.

Many still tend to miss a lowkey structural change that is happening in the market. This update is another layer of those changes.

Anyway, I see this chart below and I think it is interesting. Over the last three months, liquidity rose sharply. We now do ₦33bn - ₦35bn daily average trade.

And that value has not fully incorporated some funds that have been on the sidelines because everyone first wants to see Q1 2026 numbers.

This Frontier Market Club update is a plus.
