The All Progressives Congress (APC) has expressed confidence in taking over the leadership of Abia State in the 2027 elections, pledging to deliver greater democratic benefits to the people of the state.

Speaking at Abiriba Stadium in Ohafia Local Government Area, Abia APC Chairman Kingsley Ononogbu welcomed former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stalwart Kelvin Jombo Onumah and his supporters into the party.

Ononogbu credited the APC’s growing popularity in the state to the contributions of prominent party figures like Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu, and Minister of State for Labour and Employment Nkeiruka Onyejeocha.

“We are now more united and prepared than ever. If we take over Abia State in 2027, you will witness more visible and impactful actions,” Ononogbu said.

Kelvin Jombo, now an APC member, said his move was motivated by a desire to attract meaningful development to his constituents in Arochukwu/Ohafia Federal Constituency and Abia North as a whole.

Meanwhile, the Abia PDP Chairman, Abraham Amah, responded to the APC’s claims, asserting that his party remained strong and would make a significant comeback.

In a statement, Amah said, “We will bounce back to the amazement of naysayers and detractors”.

Veteran Nollywood actor Kenneth Okonkwo has opened up about what he calls a betrayal by Peter Obi, the former presidential candidate of the Labour Party. In a recent interview with Symfoni, Okonkwo revealed that his decision to quit the party earlier in February 2025 was influenced by Obi’s actions during a leadership crisis within the party.

Okonkwo, who once served as a spokesperson for Obi’s presidential campaign, said the former Anambra State governor ignored his counsel and returned to support the Julius Abure-led faction—despite ongoing controversies surrounding that group. He explained that Obi was misinformed by party executives who claimed that the Abure-led camp had been recognised by INEC. But in his view, Obi’s move went against everything he had previously stood for.

“Any serious politician knows how not to be misled,” Okonkwo said. “But in this case, it was Obi who betrayed me. I warned him—these people are not democratic. INEC recognition isn’t enough reason to return to a group that goes against the values you publicly uphold. If you align with them again, you risk your political credibility and everything you’ve worked for.”

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has promised to keep unsettling those who oppose President Bola Tinubu by continuing to deliver impactful projects across Abuja. Speaking at the commissioning of key roads including the Arterial Road N16 and other projects in the Katampe district, Wike said he now fully understands how much resentment some people have for the President’s achievements since taking office in 2023.

According to Wike, a recent moment while watching TV opened his eyes to how deeply some critics are affected by Tinubu’s progress. “Something just moved me to switch on the TV, and I saw the anger and pain on people’s faces,” Wike said. “Now I get it—some people are really hurting. So I’ve taken it upon myself to increase their blood pressure with more good work.”

He added that while critics stay bitter, he and others will keep enjoying the results of their efforts. “We’ll be smiling, moving around freely, while they stay mad and frustrated. That’s my new mission,” he said. Wike thanked President Tinubu for leading what he described as a development revolution in the FCT.
