PLATEAU STATE: RECLAIMING OUR TOURISM POTENTIAL THROUGH NATIONAL UNITY, A SECURE ENVIRONMENT, AND INCLUSION

Today, Tuesday, 10th November 2026, I arrived in Jos, Plateau State, as part of our ongoing nationwide series of town hall meetings.

During our visit to Jos, we paid a courtesy call on the highly respected Gbong Gwom Jos, His Royal Majesty, Da (Dr.) Jacob Gyang Buba, CFR. We briefed him on our town hall meeting in Plateau State, which was convened to engage with our people and gain a deeper understanding of their most urgent concerns.

His Royal Majesty received us warmly, offered his prayers and wise counsel, and expressed his hopes for a successful programme. He reaffirmed that traditional rulers serve as fathers to everyone and called for peace, mutual respect, and harmonious coexistence as the next elections draw near.

Following our visit to the palace, I proceeded to Rhythm 93.7 FM Jos, where I participated in an interview programme. We discussed the challenges confronting our beloved country, Nigeria, as well as the plans Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and I have developed to address these issues decisively when elected into office.

I also visited the section of Terminus Market that was destroyed by fire several months ago. There, I spoke with business owners, traders, sellers, and buyers to learn firsthand how they were coping and rebuilding amid the prevailing economic conditions. I assured them that, under our leadership, we would work to ease the devastating economic hardship that the current administration’s policies have inflicted on Nigerians.

At our town hall meeting, participants brought forward several pressing concerns, including the worsening security situation in Plateau State, safeguarding the integrity of the vote, youth unemployment, and access to financing for small businesses. One participant living with a disability also asked how our administration plans to support vulnerable groups and persons living with disabilities.

In response, I stressed that fulfilling our plans for Nigeria would first require us to secure the nation and unite our people behind a shared purpose. In particular, I assured the people of Plateau State that we would confront insecurity decisively and enable citizens displaced by violence who are currently residing in IDP camps to return safely to their communities.

To our brothers and sisters living with disabilities, I reaffirmed our commitment to their care, inclusion, and wellbeing. A nation’s true measure of compassion is found in the way it treats its most vulnerable citizens.

I also reiterated that Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and I are committed to making substantial investments in vital areas of development, especially healthcare and education, while lifting our people out of poverty.

In conclusion, I recalled the time when Jos and Plateau State more broadly ranked among the foremost tourism destinations for Nigerians and visitors from around the world. I reaffirmed our determination to revive the state’s tourism potential and restore it to its rightful place of prominence.

I extend my special appreciation to His Royal Majesty, the Gbong Gwom Jos, for his gracious hospitality, prayers, and valuable counsel. I also commend our dedicated party faithful in Plateau State for organising this program, as well as the people of Plateau State for their participation, warmth, and hospitality.

A NEW DIMENSION OF TOXIC POLITICS IN NIGERIA

The new dimension of toxic politics that Nigeria has developed since 2025,

I arrived at the airport at 7 a.m. this morning to board my flight to Enugu. There, I saw the Nigeria Under-17 girls' team, which had just arrived and was preparing to board its vehicle into town.

With genuine joy and enthusiasm, I asked my Protocol Officer, Jackie Wayas, to find out whether I could greet and welcome the team. I was informed that officials of the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) had refused and had requested that I not approach them because, if I did, they would all lose their jobs.

Regrettably, this is not the first time I have been subjected to such treatment. On March 25, 2025, I was in Uyo for the World Cup qualifier. The governor warmly received me and welcomed me at the VIP stand. Following the match, other government officials went to greet the players, but I was again prevented from doing so. I was told by the officials that they would lose their jobs if I proceeded.

It is deeply troubling to witness the extent of toxic politics into which our nation has descended since 2025. Each year appears to bring further deterioration. This reflects how deeply Nigeria has been affected.

The new Nigeria we aspire to build must have no room for hostility, intimidation, or discrimination, regardless of political affiliation. It must be a Nigeria in which unity, mutual respect, and our shared humanity take precedence over political differences.

A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

🚨 BREAKING: Tensions reportedly boiled over between Manchester City teammates Erling Haaland and Enzo Fernández following today’s 3-1 defeat to Nottingham Forest.

Haaland was allegedly seen refusing to shake Enzo’s hand after the final whistle.

Sources claim that inside the changing room, the Norwegian turned to his teammate and said:

“Why does it look like you run in boots made of cement?”

The exchange reportedly left several City players stunned, with one teammate asking whether the boots were actually sponsored by a building company.

More to follow.

Today, November 5th, I had the honour of meeting with the new British High Commissioner to Nigeria and his team at the High Commissioner's Residence in Abuja. I congratulated him and the British people on the occasion of the birthday of His Majesty King Charles III.

Our discussions covered a wide range of issues, particularly governance, the welfare of Nigerians, and the forthcoming elections.

I emphasised that our appeal to the international community is not for support for any particular candidate or political party. It is for something far more fundamental: the protection of the Nigerian people's democratic right to freely choose their leaders through free, fair, transparent and credible elections.

Democracy must be about the people, their choices and their future. I therefore encouraged the international community to continue standing with Nigerians, promoting accountability and insisting that the will of the people must prevail.

KOGI STATE: HISTORY, GOVERNANCE AND THE CHALLENGE OF BUILDING A NEW NIGERIA

After participating in the inauguration of the Presidential Campaign Council of our party, the NDC, yesterday, I travelled to Kogi State today, 27th October 2026, as part of my ongoing series of town hall meetings across the country. In Lokoja, I paid a courtesy visit to the Maigari of Lokoja, His Royal Highness Dr. Alhaji Ibrahim Gambo Kabir Maikarfi IV.

I sincerely thank His Royal Highness for receiving us at such short notice. I informed him of our town hall meeting in Lokoja, after which he graciously took time to share with us some of the history of the city.

He told us about the historic Holy Trinity Primary School, which was established in 1865 by the Most Reverend Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther and missionaries of the Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion. It is regarded as the oldest primary school in Northern Nigeria. He also told us about the historic 'Iron of Liberty' monument.

Visiting these historic sites was both enlightening and sobering. The Holy Trinity Primary School reminded me that, 161 years after its establishment, Nigeria still has the highest number of out-of-school children in the world. It is concerning that we have not done enough to preserve these legacies or build on the foundations laid by those who came before us.

At the 'Iron of Liberty,' I was reminded of the historic collaboration between missionaries and the authorities in the struggle to end the slave trade in Nigeria.

My visits to these sites reinforce my comments yesterday about spending all my holidays as President in Nigeria. They also highlight the abundant tourism potential of Kogi State and Nigeria as a whole.

From these historic sites, I proceeded to our town hall meeting, organised by our party and candidates, where we had a lengthy and engaging conversation about the contemporary challenges facing our country.

During the interaction, we discussed several issues affecting our nation, including corruption, agriculture, tourism in Kogi State, the moribund Ajaokuta Steel Company and other important matters.

My response was to reiterate our position that endemic, entrenched and institutional corruption remains at the core of many of the challenges confronting Nigeria today and must be decisively addressed.

I reiterated my commitment to uniting and securing our country around a common purpose: investing in health and education, strengthening our productive capacity and pulling our people out of pervasive poverty.

I concluded my visit by consoling a business owner whose complex was recently gutted by fire. I also visited traders at Kpata Market, where I interacted with them and received first-hand information about the prevailing economic situation, including the rising cost of goods. The traders complained of low patronage due to reduced disposable income among consumers.

I thank the large crowd that attended the event for their warm reception and the fruitful interaction we had.

My sincere gratitude goes to the organisers of our town hall meeting in Lokoja, our candidates, and all our party members and participants.

[Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso @KwankwasoRM]

I am deeply concerned by reports of suspected artificial intelligence-generated photographs and other questionable records in the preliminary register of voters published by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

These allegations raise serious questions about the integrity of our voter registration system and the safeguards in place to protect the credibility of the forthcoming general elections.

With the 2027 elections approaching, INEC must provide Nigerians with clear and convincing answers. How did these suspicious images enter the register? Were the individuals associated with these records genuinely registered? Were the identities properly verified, and could these irregularities have affected the accuracy of the voter register?

While I welcome INEC’s decision to investigate the matter, but Nigerians deserve more than assurances. The investigation must be thorough, transparent and independent (outside of INEC’s internal affairs), with its findings made public and any individuals found culpable held accountable in accordance with the law.

INEC must also allow a comprehensive and independent audit of the preliminary register, verify questionable entries, investigate possible duplicate or artificial identities and ensure that no eligible Nigerian is disenfranchised in the process of correcting irregularities.

Our democracy cannot afford any compromise in the integrity of the voter register. Every eligible Nigerian must have the right to vote, and every vote must count. Equally, nobody should be allowed to exploit technology, including artificial intelligence, to undermine our electoral system.

The credibility of the 2027 elections begins with a credible voter register, and INEC must get its act together. - RMK

A NEW AND PRODUCTIVE NIGERIA IS POSSIBLE, AND NIGERIA WILL BE OK

Yesterday, 26th of October, our Party, the NDC Campaign council was inaugurated in Abuja.

As part of my remarks, I told Nigerians how our richly endowed nation, the giant of Africa, is now the world’s poverty capital. Regrettably, over 140 million Nigerians are multidimensionally poor, representing more than 60% of the population.

Corruption remains widespread, while insecurity affects every part of our country. Unemployment and inequality are at record levels, and Nigerians face severe and avoidable hardship. Even with the removal of the fuel subsidy and reckless borrowing, with a debt of over ₦165 trillion, there has been little or no corresponding increase in productivity.

In the last three years, President Tinubu has foisted on Nigeria a reign of corruption and duplicity, resulting in extreme poverty. Today, President Tinubu has made history as the leader who has created the largest number of poor people in the world. This year, he has made about 16 million Nigerians extremely poor.

Just last Saturday, President Tinubu, while launching his re-election campaign in Kaduna, blamed past and opposition leaders for the hunger and poverty that have ravaged Nigerians.

What is clear is that President Tinubu does not have the competence, the capacity, the character, compassion or the commitment to solve the problems he created. He lacks the energy and the resolve to get Nigeria out of the current worsening crisis.

Under President Tinubu, despite his promise to fix electricity, Nigeria now has the lowest consumption of electricity. Without reliable power, businesses cannot expand efficiently, hospitals cannot provide dependable services, schools struggle to operate effectively, and households face additional financial burdens.

We will pursue an electricity reform programme focused on reliability, affordability, investment, and accountability.

We will work with relevant federal and state institutions, regulators, operators, and investors to address the weaknesses affecting generation, transmission, and distribution.

Under President Tinubu, Nigeria is more divided than ever, more terrorised than ever and more insecure than ever.

Under President Tinubu, Nigeria has fallen into a crisis of values, such that our budgets are no longer credible and our laws are forged. Nothing is sacred. Nothing is spared from degradation, not budgets, not laws, not institutions.

From our engagements with Nigerians across the country and all segments of society, the message is clear: Nigerians want and deserve a better, more productive nation, one in which good governance is visible, firmly established, effectively practised and embraced as part of our national culture.

I, Peter Obi, with my very dear elder brother, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, implore and beckon all of you, committed members of our great party, the NDC, and all Nigerians, to join us in this crusade of rebuilding our dear and most endowed nation, Nigeria.

Today, we begin a renewed journey towards a New Nigeria, united by shared purpose, founded on fairness, justice and equity, and committed to productivity, inclusion and development.

We envision a nation where government prioritises the security and welfare of its people, good governance prevails, and public officials remain accountable.

It will be a law-abiding society of healthy, skilled and educated citizens, where every child attends school and learns to read and write.

No Nigerian should live in a displaced-persons camp, and corruption must no longer weaken our institutions or the fabric of our nation.

A New Nigeria is our vision. A New Nigeria is our mission.

Corruption today has become more pervasive under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s APC-led government. No state institution has been spared, and since 2023, its effects have spread throughout national life.

Kwankwaso winning the 2031 presidential election will be easy AF because Obi will ensure a free, fair, and credible election. There’ll be no rigging, and institutions like INEC and the police will do the right thing. It’s going to be a smooth and sweet ride for him. 😂
