If Atiku becomes the presidential candidate, the PDP would die, according to Primate Elijah Ayodele

Primate Elijah Ayodele, the spiritual leader of the INRI evangelical church, has cautioned the People's Democratic Party (PDP) against offering former vice president Atiku Abubakar the party's ticket for president in 2027. Primate Ayodele threatened to end the PDP if Atiku was chosen to be the party's presidential candidate in 2027. Primate Ayodele stated in a video that he posted on his X handle: “PDP, if you want to fail, give Atiku your presidency. You will see that you will fail. It is going to be a cheap victory for APC. “Atiku is not the answer for the PDP in 2027. He is not the answer. If you try Atiku, then, politically, PDP is dead. That is the end of PDP.” Despite becoming vice president in 1999, he has never been able to hold the position of top political office in Nigeria. After being beaten by President Bola Tinubu in a hotly contested election in 2023, Atiku finished in second place. Read the full article

I’m negotiating with Peter Obi, Kwankwaso – Atiku, says one of them may ‘Step down’ The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar has said that he is in touch with the presidential candidate of New Nigerian People Party (NNPP) Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso for possible support. In an interview with BBC Hausa service, Atiku said he is also holding talks with the Labour Party (LP) Presidential Candidate, Peter Obi. He said the duo of Obi and Kwankwaso are not in anyway a threat to his chances in the election. “I see no threat because we are not together with them (Kwankwaso and Obi). We are in talks with them, one of them may possibly come,” he said. On the PDP Crisis, Atiku said, “Each party has its internal crisis, we are still talking with them. Most are neither in PDP nor in other parties and definitely that will not make us loose the election because we okay with the elections preparations for now.” “Elections now is not like in the past when a governor will dictate who to vote for, elections today is in the hands of the voters.” The presidential candidate also promised to open all Nigeria’s borders if elected president. #pdp #atikuabubakar #rabiumusakwankwaso #peterobi #nigeria #mycelebrityandi https://www.instagram.com/p/CoHpZDmoCMn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Supreme Court quashes Atiku’s appeal challenging Buhari’s election victory

The Supreme Court has dismissed the appeal challenging the election of President Muhammadu Buhari filed by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar for lack of merit. A seven-man panel of the apex court led by the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Tanko Mohammed, dismissed the appeal on Wednesday after hearing Atiku’s suit against the President Buhari’s victory. The court however said it would give the reason for its decision on a date to be announced. “We have examined the submissions of parties in this matter and the exhibit adduced and we have come to a conclusion that this appeal lacks merit, appeal is hereby dismissed,” he said. Abubakar and the PDP filed the appeal at the Supreme Court after the presidential election tribunal last month dismissed their original petition. The tribunal ruled against the PDP on the core issues it raised about the February presidential election. Abubakar and the PDP had argued that Buhari lied on oath about his educational qualification and that the high school the president said he attended did not exist at the dates stated by the president. The party and its candidate also argued that the electoral commission, INEC, manipulated the result of the election and that the result on an INEC server showed that ABubakar won the election ahead of Buhari. The tribunal disagreed with the PDP and Abubakar on the issues raised. Read the full article

Alleged Money Laundering: Court grants Atiku’s son-in-law bail

Nicholas Oweibo, a judge of the Federal High Court, in Lagos has granted bail in the sum of N20 million to Abdullahi Babalele, the son-in-law of the Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate in 2019, Atiku Abubakar. The ruling was delivered on Thursday after the bail hearing brought before the court by defence counsel, Mike Ozhekome. While delivering the ruling, Mr Nicholas said, “bail is granted in the sum of N20 million with one surety in like sum, the surety must be resident within the jurisdiction of this honourable court and have property within the jurisdiction of the court with passport photograph and address of the surety verified. “The defendant’s passport shall be submitted to this court and pending fulfilment of bail terms, the defendant is remanded in EFCC custody.” Court session While arguing for bail earlier in the proceeding, Mr Ozhekome told the court that his client “has been a faithful and decent Nigerian who believes that the ACJA and constituted authorities should be respected”. “He is not the kind of person that will jump bail and abscond from justice. If he didn’t do that with EFCC, why will he now dare now that he is before a court of law? “This is a matter of discretion, one that should be exercised judiciously. Discussing whether he is guilty or not is premature at this stage but if you look at the proof of evidence filed by the EFCC, my client has said he paid N50 million to Bashir Mohammed to send to the Obasanjo Library for intellectual development and that he never handled dollars. “If Bashir Mohammed in his wisdom changed it to dollars it means the wrong person is in the dock. The transaction my client did was a bank transfer. It does not lie with the prosecution to say they are still investigating. It is assumed that you have finished your investigation the moment you charge an accused to court.” In response, Usman Buhari, representing the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), told the court that bail is not the right of the defendant but at the discretion of the court. He said the defendant “has not placed any evidence before the court to warrant the court exercising its discretion, therefore the application of the defendant should be rejected”. Background Mr Babalele was arraigned yesterday by the EFCC on a two-count charge of money laundering of $140,000, an offence he reportedly committed in February. The EFCC, which first arrested the suspect in February, said it suspected the cash was for votes buying and had placed him on administrative bail while investigations continued. He was, however, rearrested on August 9 prior to his arraignment on Thursday. The offences are said to be contrary to Section 18(c) of the Money Laundering (Prohibition) Act, 2011 as amended and punishable under Section 16(2)(b) of the same Act. Read the full article

COSCON wants investigation into Atiku, Buhari’s nationalities

The group through its Director of Programmes, Promise Edomobi, lamented that foreigners have been ruling Nigeria since independence, finding their way into political, security and civil service sectors of the country. Edomobi called for a full investigation into the allegation saying that if it is found to be genuine, both persons should be deported immediately. In another development, the spokesman of Ohanaeze Ndigbo worldwide, Chuks Ibegbu has expressed worry over the allegation and counter allegation that Atiku and Buhari are not Nigerians. Ibegbu called for “a full enquiry into this embarrassing matter. I am aware that foreigners infiltrate Nigeria but this latest accusation and counter-accusation is worrisome and we need to get to the truth and the root.” He also urged the election petition tribunals to be dispassionate and rely on the results from the polling units to arrive at the scores of all candidates in the last election. Ibegbu further called on the Federal Government to take over the treatment of the woman whose hands were cut of by a herdsman at Ogbor Hill in Aba, as she is a citizen that needs to be protected by the federal government. She should not be left to the Abia state government alone, Ibegbu noted. The armed Fulani herdsman that wanted to kill the woman should be prosecuted immediately, Ibegbu emphasised. He reiterated that the ongoing Ohanaeze investigation into the composition of all MDAs in the county and ownership of oil blocs in the Niger Delta is germane for equity and justice even as he insisted on the creation of an additional state and local government areas in the South East Read the full article
