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.

The trial of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghanhas been set for the 22nd of September, 2025.

It can be recalled that the politician recent spoke against Senate President Godswill Akpabio, who took the action as a stand to destroy him.

A civil society, the Coalition Against Impunity described the upcoming trial as a trial of integrity in politics.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has reacted to rumours suggesting that President Bola Tinubu may have been displeased with Abdullahi Ganduje, the former Governor of Kano State, who recently stepped down as the party’s National Chairman.

There have been claims that Tinubu’s alleged dissatisfaction with Ganduje played a role in his resignation. However, APC’s National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, dismissed those claims during an interview with Channels Television on Sunday, describing them as mere speculation.

Morka explained that only President Tinubu can personally address the matter concerning Ganduje if he chooses to. “The President is free to speak on any issue whenever he feels like it. He hasn’t said anything about this, so people are just speculating. But we don’t run on speculation,” Morka stated.

Last week, the APC confirmed Ganduje’s resignation, which took immediate effect. The official reason given was that Ganduje was stepping down to focus on “pressing personal matters.”
