PDP Leaders in Abia North Meet to Plan for 2027 Election
Top members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) recently gathered for a stakeholders’ meeting in Abia North. This meeting was focused on revitalizing the party to take back power in the state by 2027.
Attendees from the five local governments in the region came together with a shared commitment. They aimed to move past the divisive issues that had hindered the party in the past.
During the meeting, held at the home of Mandela Obasi, a member of the Abia State House of Assembly represented Ohafia North. PDP Chairman Abraham Amah expressed strong confidence that the party would make a comeback. He stated that the PDP’s candidates for the 2027 elections would be chosen through fair primaries. In addition, they would need to have the capacity to win.
Amah emphasized that the days of sentiment and impunity were over for the PDP. He insisted that the party was now more connected with the people. He also issued a stern warning to anyone pretending to be a member of the PDP while working against its interests. Also stressing that such actions would have consequences.
Mandela Obasi and Emmanuel Ndubuisi, who represent Ohafia North and Bende South in the state assembly, also spoke at the meeting. Both assured that they would remain loyal to the PDP and work for its future success. They said this despite some colleagues leaving the party for other political groups.
In a communique signed by the party’s leaders, including Chairman Amah, they made it clear that they were fully committed to ensuring the PDP reclaims the Abia State Government House in 2027.
Tonye Cole speaks out on Governor Siminalayi Fubara’s emergence and continuation as the Governor of Rivers State.
He shared his thoughts, saying the governor likely consulted with his close allies before making key decisions.
“My assumption is that the governor would have gone with his own close allies, discussed with them, and said that this is the best way, that he has to move forward for the next six months or thereabouts of his administration. I would assume that’s what he did.”
“But I am not in his chamber, so I wouldn’t know. But that’s what I would assume he would do.”
He added “But having taken the responsibility to come and finish his term, then he has to finish it in the way that allows him to govern. He can’t go back into fighting.”
Politician and former President Olusegun Obasanjo speaks on Nigeria and shares that the possibility of Nigeria surviving another civil war is quite low.
He revealed that the issues that led to the Biafra War have not been resolved and that if another war breaks out, it will be much harder to resolve.
Reflecting on the civil war, he shared “The conditions that led to the Nigerian civil war years ago still remain unresolved.”
“I was involved in the civil war, but whenever people ask me about the Asaba massacre, I always tell them I cannot give details because Murtala Muhammed was responsible for operations in that area.”
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose pleads with the government and President Tinubu that the minimum wage needs to be increased.
He shared that the current minimum wage of ₦70,000 is not enough considering the current state of the country and urged the government to increase it to ₦200,000.
“President Tinubu, have mercy on our people and increase the minimum wage to ₦200,000 now. I don’t think anyone can survive on the current ₦70,000 minimum wage. ₦70,000 is nothing. If we don’t solve the minimum wage problem, we can’t solve crime.”
