Deji Adeyanju Hails Atiku and Others for Dumping PDP to Unite Opposition

Activist lawyer Deji Adeyanju has praised top opposition figures for uniting to challenge the All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the 2027 elections. Adeyanju commended leaders from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and others for leaving the party to align with the African Democratic Congress (ADC), describing the move as long overdue.
Notable names like former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, ex-Senate President David Mark, former Jigawa Governor Sule Lamido, and others have dumped the PDP to adopt the ADC as their new platform to confront President Bola Tinubu’s government in the next polls. They’ve also called on other PDP members to join forces for what they describe as a collective push for change.
Reacting on Facebook, Adeyanju expressed excitement, saying it’s good to see the opposition finally working together. “I’m proud they’ve come together at last. Special appreciation to Atiku, Obi, and the others for setting aside personal interests to make this possible,” he wrote.
He further encouraged NNPP’s Rabiu Kwankwaso to join the alliance, saying this unity was exactly what the opposition lacked in the last election. “Whenever you wake up is your morning. Good morning to the opposition,” he added.

Governor Adeleke Says He’s Staying in PDP and Will Keep Serving Osun State

Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has dismissed rumours that he plans to dump the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), making it clear that he’s staying put.
Speaking during the flag-off of the 3.5km Ila township road dualisation project in Ila-Orangun, Adeleke reaffirmed his commitment to both the party and the people of the state. He stressed that his mission remains focused on service and development, not political distractions.
Despite the uncertainty in the country, Adeleke expressed joy over the kickoff of the road project, describing it as a step forward in his administration’s promise to transform infrastructure across Osun.
He proudly highlighted the achievements so far, saying his government has already completed over 175 kilometres of roadwork. He also noted that several other major projects, including flyovers and dualised roads, are actively progressing.
One of the key projects, according to him, is the 39km Osogbo–Ikirun–Inisha–Okuku–Ijabe–Ila Odo road that links the state to Kwara. Adeleke stressed that its completion is a top priority for his administration.
“I was elected under the PDP and I will remain in the PDP,” Adeleke said. “We’ve started a second phase that’s almost as long as what took 12 years to finish. By God’s grace, we’ll complete it within a year.” He ended by calling the gathering a divine moment, saying everyone present is part of a bigger plan guided by God.

“Buhari Would Have Supported EndSARS Protest If It Was Peaceful” – Garba Shehu

Garba Shehu, former spokesperson for late President Muhammadu Buhari, has said the former leader would have supported the EndSARS protests if they had remained peaceful. Speaking during an interview on Arise TV’s Morning Show, Shehu noted that Buhari initially saw the movement as a genuine expression of public concern and would have welcomed it.
However, Shehu explained that things took a different turn when the protests were overtaken by violence, vandalism, and attacks on law enforcement. He pointed out that the government responded early with offers of dialogue and even took steps like disbanding SARS to address the concerns raised.
But according to him, once the protest turned into a security crisis, marked by arson, destruction of public property, and loss of lives, no responsible government could sit back and watch. He emphasized that Buhari was deeply disturbed by how things unfolded, especially with the chaos in Lagos and other cities, and hoped such an incident never happens again in Nigeria.
