In a recent interview, former Senate President Adolphus Wabara disclosed that he rejected a ₦250 million bribe intended to secure his support for the controversial third-term agenda for then-President Olusegun Obasanjo in 2006.

Wabara recounted how the bribe was delivered at 1:30 a.m. in a black G-Wagon, emphasizing that his Soviet Union education, which ingrained a strong disdain for corruption, influenced his decision.

Primate Elijah Ayodele, the head of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church in Lagos, has said that two presidential hopefuls could prevent President Bola Tinubu from winning a second term in 2027. He shared this in a recent video.

According to Ayodele, these two candidates have the power to shake up the political scene and change the outcome of the election. He hinted that their actions could influence both the ruling All Progressives Congress and opposition parties, making the race more unpredictable.

The 2027 election is shaping up to be a major moment in Nigeria’s democracy. Tinubu, who became president in 2023, is expected to run for a second term, but the political landscape is already crowded with coalitions and alliances. Among them, the African Democratic Congress is reportedly positioning itself as a strong challenger, with figures like Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi forming partnerships that could affect the balance of power.

While some people take his words seriously and others are skeptical. As 2027 approaches, Nigerians will be watching closely to see if these aspirants can truly change the course of the election.

Daniel Bwala, Special Adviser on Policy Communication to President Bola Tinubu, has said that former president Goodluck Jonathan stands no chance against his principal if he decides to contest the 2027 presidential election.

Bwala, who spoke on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Wednesday, cautioned Jonathan against yielding to pressure from those urging him to return to the race. According to him, such calls are only aimed at ruining the former leader’s hard-earned reputation.

“I can see that certain people are trying to lure former President Jonathan back into politics just so they can damage the image he has carefully built since leaving office,” Bwala said. “After his time in government, he rose to become a respected international figure, and going back would put that at risk.”

While Jonathan has not publicly declared any political ambition, Bwala stressed that even if he chooses to run, he does not have the strength to defeat Tinubu. “If Jonathan eventually throws his hat into the ring, I can tell you with facts from the political climate today that there is no politician capable of dislodging President Bola Tinubu,” he added.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has strongly criticized the Nigeria Police Force for arresting and detaining human rights activist Omoyele Sowore. Sowore had gone to the Force Headquarters in Abuja on Wednesday to honour an invitation from the Inspector-General of Police Monitoring Unit over a petition.

He arrived with his lawyers and members of the ‘Take It Back Movement’, but was taken into custody and has remained there since. By Thursday, Sowore claimed that his arm had been broken while in detention, alleging that he was assaulted and sprayed with chemicals by officers.

Reacting on his X page, Atiku described the incident as a disgraceful misuse of power that must be condemned by all who stand for justice. He said Sowore’s only “crime” was speaking out against injustice, nepotism, and bad governance, yet he was attacked, injured, and humiliated under the watch of the police.
