BREAKING: Atiku Announces 2027 Will Be His Last Presidential Run

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has made it clear that the 2027 presidential election will be his final shot at the presidency of Nigeria, stating that he won’t be running again in 2031 if he doesn’t win this time around.

In an exclusive interview conducted in Hausa, Atiku was asked if he would consider another presidential bid if he fell short in 2027. He firmly replied, “A’a, na faɗa na ce ai daga wannan takaran bazan sake ba,” which translates to, “No, I have said it before; after this contest, I will not run again.”

This announcement could signify the conclusion of Atiku’s long-standing ambition for the presidency, making 2027 a crucial moment for him in his quest for the nation’s top position.

When addressing questions about his health and ability to govern, Atiku confidently brushed aside any concerns, asserting that no doctor has ever deemed him unfit to lead.

He also encouraged Nigerians to get their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) and make their voices heard at the polls, emphasizing the importance of not just voting but also safeguarding their votes and supporting their chosen candidates.

As for what Nigerians can expect if he emerges victorious, Atiku promised, “Za ku gani ba sai kun yi mamaki ba. Eh, za ku amfana insha Allahu,” which means, “You will see for yourselves; you will be surprised. Yes, you will benefit, God willing.”

Former Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha has taken legal action against INEC, Governor Hope Uzodimma, and the APC regarding Uzodimma’s designation as the party’s candidate for the 2027 Imo West senatorial seat.

Okorocha is urging the Federal High Court in Abuja to annul INEC’s announcement of Uzodimma’s name, asserting that he emerged victorious in the APC primary held on May 18.

According to court documents, Okorocha received 150,780 votes, while Uzodimma garnered 102,158.

He is seeking a court order for INEC to acknowledge and publish his name as the official APC candidate, and to prevent Uzodimma from presenting himself as the party’s nominee.

During his time in office, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo made nine trips to the United States. Out of those, five were working visits, two were private meetings with President George W. Bush, one was for the G-8 Economic Summit in Georgia, and another was to pay respects at the funeral of former President Ronald Reagan.

Even though his presidency was relatively brief, President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua managed to make two working visits to the U.S., including a notable meeting with President George W. Bush at the White House.

President Goodluck Jonathan took four significant diplomatic trips to the U.S. during his tenure. These included a working visit, participation in the Nuclear Security Summit as Acting President, a meeting with President Barack Obama, and attendance at the landmark U.S.–Africa Leaders Summit.

Similarly, President Muhammadu Buhari also made four major visits to the United States for various bilateral discussions and multilateral summits.

In contrast, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu stands out as the only Nigerian president since 1999 who has not yet made a trip to the United States for a presidential meeting, working visit, diplomatic engagement, nuclear summit, or any other significant bilateral event.

Notably, during the latest high-profile sessions of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, it was Vice President Kashim Shettima who represented President Tinubu.

This is particularly noteworthy given that President Tinubu is not one to shy away from international travel. In fact, his administration has been marked by frequent trips abroad.

So, what makes the United States different in this regard?

Is there a specific reason behind President Tinubu's absence from Washington, especially considering the strategic importance of Nigeria–U.S. relations?

And is there something holding him back from following in the footsteps of his predecessors by visiting the United States and meeting with President Donald Trump?

On Wednesday, a group of troublemakers reportedly clashed with security personnel assigned to the convoy of Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke at the palace of the Ataoja of Osogbo, Oba Jimoh Oyetunji.

This incident unfolded just after Adeleke received his Certificate of Return from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and made a visit to the palace to celebrate his victory with the traditional ruler.

Sources from the palace indicated that some individuals had gathered in an unregistered Toyota Sienna before the governor's arrival.

Witnesses mentioned that a heated argument broke out among the group, and shortly after, gunshots rang out. The reasons behind the altercation and who the intended target of the shooting was remain unclear.

Laide Misture, a shop owner nearby, reported hearing gunfire just minutes after the governor and his team entered the palace.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is set to take the stage at the 81st United Nations General Assembly in New York on September 23, 2026, where he’ll be addressing world leaders. There’s also a chance he might meet with U.S. President Donald Trump during the event.

As per the provisional speakers’ list, Tinubu is slated to speak in the morning session on the second day of the high-profile General Debate.

This gathering presents a great opportunity for Nigeria to showcase the reforms under the Tinubu administration and to advocate for stronger international collaboration on security, especially in terms of improving border policing throughout West Africa.

Nigeria’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Jimoh Ibrahim, mentioned that a meeting between Tinubu and Trump could take place on the sidelines of the General Assembly.

This potential encounter is likely to attract a lot of attention, especially with over 150 heads of state and government expected to be in attendance in New York.

Former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose has expressed that if the Federal Government truly decided to impose its will on an election, there wouldn’t be much anyone could do to prevent it.

In a recent interview on TVC News regarding the Osun governorship election held on August 15, Fayose characterized the race as fiercely contested, noting that either candidate had a fair shot at winning. He extended his congratulations to Governor Ademola Adeleke on his victory but urged him to show generosity and work towards reconciling with all parties involved.

Fayose didn’t hold back in his criticism of the violence and loss of life that marred the election, calling it completely unnecessary.

Addressing concerns about the Federal Government's potential influence over the election, he stated, “If the federal government wants to take an election, they will take it. If they want to take it, there’s nothing you can do.”

He also echoed the sentiments of FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, agreeing that the election was indeed free and fair, thanks to President Bola Tinubu’s decision to allow it to proceed without interference.

BREAKING: Garba Shehu Lauds INEC, Calls Amupitan’s Osun Election Performance “Outstanding”

Garba Shehu, who served as spokesperson for former President Muhammadu Buhari, has given a thumbs up to INEC, praising what he called a transparent and credible electoral process in the recent Osun State governorship election.

Shehu also took a moment to commend INEC Chairman, Prof. Joash Amupitan, for his humility and composure, especially in light of the widespread accolades for the commission’s management of the election.

He admitted that he had some doubts about Amupitan’s appointment at first, mainly due to concerns over a 2020 legal brief that was reportedly associated with the INEC chairman. However, Shehu noted that the way the Osun election was conducted has completely shifted his viewpoint.

He pointed out that INEC provided a transparent process that received praise from civil society groups, the European Union, and both local and international observers, particularly highlighting the electronic transmission and uploading of results to IReV.

Shehu also recognized the significant contributions of former INEC chairmen, Prof. Attahiru Jega and Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, to the evolution of Nigeria’s electoral system.

“Thanks to Amupitan’s leadership, we’ve seen a transparent electoral process in the country. Everyone is singing praises for this remarkable performance.”

He expressed surprise that Amupitan hadn’t taken the opportunity to celebrate this achievement nearly 48 hours after the election.

“Where is the captain of the ship, Prof. Amupitan? He hasn’t grabbed the microphone or stepped in front of the cameras to proudly showcase this success. We’re not used to this level of humility, patience, and restraint.” — Garba Shehu

BREAKING: “JEGA GAVE NIGERIA ITS BEST ELECTION SINCE JUNE 12!” — GARBA SHEHU

Garba Shehu has heaped praise on INEC Chairman Joash Amupitan for the recently wrapped-up Osun governorship election, calling Prof. Attahiru Jega’s time in office the golden era of Nigerian elections since the controversial 1993 vote.

However, Shehu hinted that Amupitan might be on the verge of establishing a new standard for trustworthy elections.

He then raised an intriguing question:

“Where is Professor Amupitan?”
