“Peter Obi Is Misleading Nigerians About Labour Party Crisis” – Abure Camp Claims

The crisis within the Labour Party has taken another turn as Julius Abure, the factional National Chairman, has cautioned the party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, against what he described as attempts to blackmail the party.
This caution came through a statement released by the faction’s National Secretary, Alhaji Umar Farouk Ibrahim, following an interview Obi granted Arise TV on Monday. In the interview, Obi reportedly claimed that the ruling APC had infiltrated the Labour Party’s leadership and was fueling internal conflict.
Reacting to the interview, Abure’s camp dismissed the allegations, stating that the troubles rocking the party were not caused by any external interference from the APC but were rather the result of internal actions taken by Obi and Abia State Governor, Alex Otti. The faction emphasized that Governor Otti, currently under suspension for anti-party behavior, and Obi played key roles in triggering the issues now affecting the party.
They went further to challenge Obi to present any solid proof—tangible or not—that links the Abure-led leadership to any collaboration with the APC. They also addressed Obi’s claim that Abure referred to Otti as a “dwarf,” describing the accusation as an attempt to distract from more pressing matters.
While the group said they didn’t wish to publicly drag Obi, they criticized what they see as his consistent misrepresentation of the situation, urging him to stop misleading Nigerians. They noted that like many political parties, Labour Party is facing internal challenges, but insisted Obi must take responsibility for his part in it.
The statement stressed that the party had several chances in 2023 to form alliances but chose to stick by Obi and Otti—before, during, and even after the elections. Now, they believe it’s time for Obi to accept responsibility for his own shortcomings. “Leaders aren’t perfect, but when they make mistakes, they should own them,” the statement read. “Peter Obi failed in providing the leadership the party needed. Instead of pointing fingers, he should take accountability.”

Singer Charly Boy Reacts to ADC’s 2027 Plans: “Is It About Change or Power?”

Nigerian singer Charly Boy has shared his thoughts on the recent political move by the political party African Democratic Congress (ADC).
It can be noted that the party is gearing up to challenge President Tinubu’s position in the 2027 elections.
The singer took to social media to express his thoughts on the move and questioned who the party is truly fighting for.
“Are they fighting for you, or fighting to sit where their enemies used to sit? Are they shouting ‘enough is enough’ because they’ve changed… or because they’re no longer the ones benefitting?”
“We don’t just need new names. We need new values, new visions, and people with the guts to live by them. 2027 is not about revenge. It’s about rescue.”

Amaechi Says Buhari Performed Better Than Tinubu

Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, believes that despite his shortcomings, former President Muhammadu Buhari performed better than the current administration under President Bola Tinubu.
Speaking during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Amaechi admitted Buhari didn’t achieve everything he set out to do, but insisted that things were still better under his leadership compared to now. “Buhari will be the first to tell you he didn’t accomplish all his plans, but by every standard, his government outperformed this one,” Amaechi said.
The former Rivers State governor pointed to areas like security and the independence of institutions, especially the electoral commission, as key areas where Buhari did better. “In terms of security, Buhari placed more focus there. When it comes to the independence of INEC, there was far more freedom under Buhari than we’re seeing now,” he added.
Amaechi also criticised the current state of politics, claiming that new political parties can’t even get registered because of interference from government officials. He made it clear that his comments are not personal, saying he would have been the first to commend President Tinubu if things were going well.

Amaechi Says It’s Time for a Southern President to Rule Nigeriar

Former Transportation Minister Rotimi Amaechi has maintained that Nigeria’s next president should come from the South. Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Amaechi stressed that while power should shift to the South, competence and character must be the key factors in choosing leaders, not just regional sentiment.
He pointed out that the coming elections won’t just be about political parties but will be a fight between everyday Nigerians and the political class. In his words, “Nigeria belongs to everyone. We can’t keep running a system where one region holds all the power and others are sidelined. There are capable leaders in the South. It’s time to restore balance and deliver real results.”
Amaechi added that the elections should not be based on blind party loyalty, saying, “This is about Nigerians taking a stand against the political elite. If we truly want change, now is the time to act.” He believes the South is prepared to take the lead, promising a platform that gives every Nigerian a voice and renewed hope.
