Atiku’s Integrity Under Attack: PDP Coalition Challenges APC’s False Narratives

In strongest terms , I boldly condemn the baseless, trivial and unfounded rumours being peddled against the personality of the 2023 PDP Presidential candidate , Alhaji Atiku Abubakar , accusing him of receiving financial assistance from Gov. Sanwo Olu of Lagos State to fund his Presidential election . It is highly debasing for anyone in his right thinking to imagine that Atiku approached the Lagos State governor for financial support and as well received the same during an election Tinubu was desperately bent on deploying all forms of deceptive tendencies to grab power at all costs. It is an extreme…

Ekiti’s next leap! – By abiodun KOMOLAFE

One of the off-cycle elections next year will take place in Ekiti State, where Governor Biodun Oyebanji will face reelection. Oyebanji has several strengths to leverage when campaigning begins, particularly his efforts to redirect the state’s political economy in a positive direction, as widely acknowledged by conventional wisdom. Ekiti State has navigated the current economic transformation in very steady ways. The state’s poverty level is relatively manageable, rather than crippling. The governor’s strategic intervention in agriculture has built up buffers of price-modulating as well as supply-adjustment mechanisms. This approach has effectively withstood economic headwinds, serving as a model that other…
