Makinde Urges Ondo Voters to Choose Change with PDP
Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has called the upcoming Ondo State governorship election a vital chance for Nigerians to voice their desire for positive change.
Makinde urged Ondo residents to make a powerful statement through the ballot, reflecting their commitment to good governance and a brighter future.
Makinde encouraged all who value progress and development to rally behind the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and cast their votes in support.
He highlighted the PDP’s track record in addressing Nigeria’s issues, arguing that the party is equipped to steer the country out of its economic struggles.
Citing the growth and improvements seen in PDP-led states, he said that these areas demonstrate the party’s potential to uplift communities and strengthen the economy.
In his words, Let every person in Ondo come out on Saturday and speak with their vote.
It’s time to say no to the APC’s neglect of people-centered policies. Nigerians must stand with the PDP—the party with a vision for economic recovery.
Makinde reminded voters that Ondo’s election is a test case, a moment for citizens to prove that their determination can fuel true transformation.
He urged people to reflect on the achievements PDP governors have made across their states.
Just yesterday, we rolled out our Budget of Economic Stabilization, a budget built around putting people first.
We based it on data and real needs. For Oyo State, this means more infrastructure projects, advances in education, and substantial economic growth.
Media personality Dele Momodu reacts and shares his thoughts regarding First Lady Remi Tinubu interrupting the Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, during a recent event.
The event was the 10th coronation anniversary of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi. In the scene, while Governor Adeleke was giving a speech, he began with a worship song. But while singing, the First Lady stood up and met him to inform him to stop singing and go directly to his speech instead.
Media personality Dele then reacted and questioned why she would do something like that, asking if she would have done the same kind of interruption if it were the recitation of the Qur’an.
First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has shared that she has forgiven those who betrayed her husband during the 2023 general elections.
She revealed this as she marked a new age, reflecting on what the future holds. She emphasized that she holds no grudge against anyone.
“I do not have anything against anyone. The question is how I stopped feeling the betrayal? I knew the grace factor was evident, and the Holy Spirit continually comforted me. I chose never to avenge myself, understanding that it is God’s prerogative. Mine is to thank Him for fighting for us. If God decides to fight your battles and you have won, is there anything else that God missed and you wanted to fix? Nothing. So, let it go.”
Paul Ibe, spokesperson to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of laying the groundwork to manipulate the 2027 general elections.
Speaking during a YouTube interview, Ibe alleged that the ruling party, led by President Bola Tinubu, has run out of achievements to show after more than two years in office. This has resorted to silencing opposition voices and critical institutions.
According to him, APC is working to weaken independent media, civil society groups, and political opponents. They insists that the clampdown is part of a wider strategy to retain power.
“They have nothing to offer after two years of holding on to the mandate,” Ibe said. “The only way left for them is to start preparing to rig, and the process is already in motion.”
Additionally, he went on to describe Nigeria’s current political climate as a drift into dictatorship, recalling the heavy price paid by activists who fought for democracy in the past.
“The democracy we’ve had since 1999 came at a huge sacrifice. Many lives were lost in the struggle,” he said. “Those heroes would be turning in their graves to see what is happening now. People like Sowore are being harassed and intimidated, and that shows where we are heading.”
