'When A Man's Way Pleases The Lord, He Makes Even His Enemies At Peace With Him.' - The Bible. In politics, opposition parties are very visible and effective where and when governments fail. They gain momentum when promises remain unfulfilled, when projects are abandoned, and when citizens lose faith in those entrusted with power. Conversely, when governance is visible, measurable and impactful, the opposition often finds itself with little more than rhetoric. This is the political reality in Enugu State under Governor Peter Mbah. Since assuming office on May 29, 2023, Governor Mbah has pursued governance with an intensity that…

You Can’t Beat BAT, Divided And Disunited… I.

Column, Opinion, Politics2027, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Chris Nwaokobia, Next Level, Nwaokobia Jnr, Opinion, Politics

I was going to begin a new series called ATIKU: NOW IS THE TIME TO PUT COUNTRYFIRST before the new wave of defections over the weekend from the African Democratic Congress ADC to the National Democratic Congress NDC compelled this detour. My concern is not so much about partisanship, nor about anybody's place in the politricks of 2027, it is more about the lot of the Nigerian people.

His emergence on the public stage reflects not just a transition from private enterprise to public office, but a deliberate effort to redefine leadership through results, inclusivity, and long-term vision. Mbah’s administrative style is deeply influenced by his background in business and strategic management. Before assuming public office, he built a reputation in the…

BAT: Now That You Have Chosen To Eat Up Yourself… Who Do You Blame? II.

Abia State, Column, News, Opinion, Politics2027, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Chris Nwaokobia, Nwaokobia Jnr, Politics

The greed for Power, for Control and for the Reelection/Return of an uneventful President come 2027 has brought our nation to an unparalleled low, our politics to the nadir, and made the quality of the defense of an underperforming Presidency, one full of words and propaganda with very little positives, sickening, soulless and satanic. After the tragic massacre of innocent citizens on the 29th of March, 2026 in Jos, for desperate political reasons and optics, the President visited Jos, stopped at the Airport, met with the 'leaders' and could not visit the 'locus in quo' (actual place where the Carnage…
