The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has condemned the All Progressives Congress (APC), describing it as a party of “political vampires” that thrives on “sucking the blood” of citizens while imposing severe hardship on Nigerians.

The PDP labeled the APC as a coalition of power-grabbers, treasury looters, and manipulators who, according to them, are solely interested in “grabbing, snatching, and running off with Nigeria’s resources,” leaving millions of citizens to suffer.
This statement was made by the PDP’s National Publicity Secretary, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, in Abuja yesterday. The PDP also criticized the APC for its recent attacks on Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde, who has been vocal about the hardship experienced by Nigerians under the APC administration. The party described these attacks as “reckless, insensitive, and an arrogant display of failure.”
Ologunagba said, “The APC’s attack on Governor Makinde confirms that they are jittery as their days are numbered. Nigerians have seen through the APC’s lies, manipulations, and suppressive policies that demonstrate incompetence in governance.”
He continued, “Governor Makinde remains a credible and effective leader, evident in his numerous development projects for the people of Oyo State. His work alongside other PDP governors demonstrates his commitment to development, democracy, and resisting the APC’s scheme to turn Nigeria into a one-party state.”
Ologunagba expressed outrage at the APC’s assertion that Nigeria is “on the cusp of prosperity” amid rampant insecurity, economic hardship, and deteriorating infrastructure, all allegedly brought on by APC’s “anti-people policies.” He added, “It’s absurd for the APC to think it can deceive Nigerians with false claims of performance when it has failed on all fronts, undoing the progress made during the PDP’s 16 years in power.”
He further criticized the economic decline under the APC, stating, “The Naira, which traded at N168 to the Dollar under the PDP, now exchanges at almost N2,000 per Dollar. Petrol prices have soared from N87 per liter to over N1,500, a bag of rice has risen from N8,000 to over N100,000, and the cost of staple foods like beans and garri has skyrocketed.”
Ologunagba accused APC leaders of “looting the nation’s treasury to fund their lavish lifestyles” while Nigerians face unprecedented hardship. He suggested that the APC’s recent personal attacks and data manipulation indicate desperation as 2027 approaches.
He concluded, “The APC should acknowledge its failures and prepare to exit in February 2027. The PDP, backed by Nigerians, will end the APC’s political journey, putting this contraption where it belongs—in political oblivion.”

House of Rep member lists Gov Yusuf’s ‘offences’ against Kwankwaso....Read Full Article>>
Aliyu Sani Madakin-Gini, the House of Representatives member representing Dala Federal Constituency, has alleged that Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf’s perceived rift with Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso stemmed from controversies over a drugs contract and a state-funded scholarship scheme.
Madakin-Gini, a former close ally of Kwankwaso—the leader of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) and the Kwankwasiyya Movement—recently announced his departure from the movement, reflecting growing divisions within the NNPP in Kano. While Madakin-Gini remains in the NNPP, he has shifted his loyalty to another faction, leading his ward executives to announce his suspension on Tuesday.

In a video addressing his supporters, Madakin Gini outlined Kwankwaso’s expectations of loyalty, stating, “What the leader of Kwankwasiyya wants is total obedience. In all 44 local government areas, he desires sole authority. When we all gather, he seeks to see who is most loyal to him.”
According to Madakin-Gini, Governor Yusuf’s perceived ‘offences’ include his position on the investigations into drug contracts in the state, an issue Kwankwaso reportedly considered more serious than any actions taken by the former Governor Abdullahi Ganduje.
The drug contract saga previously led to the detention of Kwankwaso’s nephew by the state’s Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission. The nephew had reportedly secured the contract across the state’s 44 local government areas. The governor had reportedly said he was not aware of how the contract was awarded and directed the anti-corruption commission to investigate the alleged fraud in the scheme.
Madakin-Gini also cited Kwankwaso’s alleged dissatisfaction with Governor Yusuf’s decision to direct an investigation into discrepancies in a scholarship programme. According to him, it was discovered that only 400 beneficiaries were sponsored instead of the 1,001 initially approved by the governor.
“Now, he has added more grievances for refusing to sack Baffa Bichi, the Secretary to the State Government, and Muhammad Diggol, the Commissioner for Transport,” Madakin Gini said. Both officials were allegedly involved in a splinter group supporting Yusuf’s autonomy from Kwankwaso’s influence, leading to their suspension by party leaders.
“Abba was brought in as a puppet,” Madakin Gini claimed. “If what Abba has done is not enough for them, the only thing left is for him to lie down and be slaughtered.”
He added that he had advised a governor, a friend of his, against intervening in the matter with Kwankwaso, as he believed Kwankwaso would not be receptive.
Efforts to get a response from Kwankwaso were unsuccessful. His aide, Ibrahim Adam, did not respond to calls or messages at the time of this report, though he had previously denied any discord, pointing to recent joint appearances of the two leaders.
Governor Yusuf’s spokesperson, Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, was also unavailable for comment. He had ealier said that the governor would be addressing these issues in an upcoming local radio broadcast.
A former presidential spokesman, Doyin Okupe, on Thursday suggested how to unseat President Bola Tinubu in 2027.....Read Full Article>>
Okupe said a combination of former presidential candidates from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar and that of Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi, would unseat Tinubu in 2027.
He said it’s game over should former President Goodluck Jonathan joins the race in 2027.
Posting on X, Okupe charged business mogul, Aliko Dangote should emulate Elon Musk and back Atiku.
He wrote: “Many Nigerian pseudo politicians lack deep thinking. Atiku/Obi will unseat Tinubu. Assumes Yorubas are stupid.
“Bring GEJ in 2027. Game over assumes the North is self-destructive.
“Dangote should be like Elon Musk & back Atiku. Assumes Dangote is suicidal. Where is God in all this.”
