Speaking at the inaugural Presidential Press Corps Dinner in Abuja, the President acknowledged the inherent tension between the government and the press but described it as a natural feature of democracy. "The government must act, the media must watch, the government must explain, and the media must question," he said.

Nigerian Army, Benin troops conduct joint patrol in Cotonou to curb insecurity

Troops of the Nigerian Army and personnel of the Benin National Guard have conducted a joint night patrol in Cotonou, Republic of Benin, with the view to curtailing insecurity at the border communities.

This is contained in a post on X by Zagazola Makama, a counter-insurgency and security expert in the Lake Chad region.

Makama said the operation is part of ongoing efforts to strengthen cross-border security cooperation and combat transnational crimes.

He stated that the patrol was carried out between 12:05 am and 2:12 am on June 8 under the framework of Operation AWATSE/Operation A II and the Benin National Guard.

According to him, the joint patrol covered designated routes and key locations within Cotonou to enhance security, deter criminal activities and reinforce operational collaboration between the security forces of both countries.

The security expert further noted that no unusual occurrence was recorded during the operation, which was completed successfully and without incident.

“The patrol provided a visible security presence across the city while improving coordination, information sharing and interoperability between the participating forces.

“The joint operation forms part of broader bilateral security initiatives aimed at addressing trans-border crimes, strengthening border management and promoting stability within the West African sub-region.

“Regular joint patrols and collaborative operations remain critical to tackling emerging security threats and safeguarding communities along shared borders,” he said.

Amaechi rejects ADC presidential primary results

A former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has rejected the outcome of the African Democratic Congress presidential primaries.

The former Rivers State Governor also alleged widespread voter disenfranchisement and electoral malpractice during the exercise.

Amaechi, in a statement issued on his X handle after the primaries on Tuesday, described the results announced by the party as “concocted” and insisted he would not accept an outcome that failed to reflect fairness and transparency.

“Following reports of widespread voter disenfranchisement in most parts of the country during the African Democratic Congress (ADC) Presidential Primaries yesterday, I unequivocally reject the concocted results being announced,” he said.

The former Rivers State governor stated that he had earlier made it clear that he would only accept the outcome of the primaries if the process was free, fair and transparent.

“I had initially stated that I would only accept the outcome of the primaries if the process was free, fair, and transparent, and I stand by my word,” he said.

Amaechi accused the party leadership of betraying the ideals the ADC claimed to represent in its quest to provide an alternative platform for Nigerians.

“I will not accept results from a process that does not reflect the values that the ADC had pledged to uphold, to rescue Nigerians from the impunity and gross mismanagement that our country is currently facing in the hands of the ruling party,” he added.

According to him, a large percentage of party members were allegedly denied the opportunity to vote during the exercise.

“There’s no way that about eighty per cent of members of the party were not allowed to vote, and you expect me to accept such results. Then what makes us different from the others?” he queried.

Amaechi said the ADC was created to amplify the voices of ordinary Nigerians and provide a platform built on fairness and inclusion.

“The whole idea of the ADC was to give the Nigerian people a platform, to amplify the voices of the downtrodden, and make Nigeria a better place for everyone irrespective of backgrounds, ethnicity, or religion,

APC HEADING FOR AN EPIC DISASTER IN ỌWỌ/ỌSẸ: THE IMPOSED PRIMARY RESULT IS A LEGAL TIME BOMB AND AN INSULT TO DEMOCRACY

​The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is sleepwalking into a catastrophic political and legal ambush in the Owo/Ose Federal Constituency of Ondo State.

A critical look at the official primary result sheet reveals an administrative anomaly that defies logic, violates basic electoral guidelines, and practically handovers a guaranteed courtroom victory to the opposition.

By declaring Engr. Kayode Ijalana the winner despite scoring a distant second place, the party leadership is actively engineering its own downfall ahead of the general elections.

​The glaring, inexplicable question staring everyone in the face is simple: If Hon. Ayodeji Arowele Samuel was never cleared by the party's Screening Committee, how on earth did his name get onto the ballot, and how was he allowed to accumulate a landslide victory of 9,690 votes?

For a candidate to feature on an official election sheet, print ballot materials, and have delegates cast their votes for him, he must have passed through the party's administrative machinery.

To allow a candidate to contest, dominate the polls by scoring more than the rest of the aspirants combined, and then suddenly "remember" he wasn't screened after the votes are counted is a monumental failure of internal party administration.

​This crude technicality creates an immediate, explosive pre-election crisis that the APC will not survive. Hon. Samuel’s camp, backed by the overwhelming mandate of nearly 10,000 disenfranchised party members, will rightfully feel robbed.

This is an open invitation for massive grassroots anti-party sabotage, where angry delegates will actively pool their resources to ensure the APC loses the general election out of spite.

Simultaneously, Hon. Samuel has been handed an ironclad case to approach the Federal High Court. He will easily argue that the party was negligent, acted in bad faith, and violated his right to a fair hearing. A swift judicial injunction stopping the party from submitting Engr. Ijalana’s name to INEC is almost a certainty.
