The Delta governor’s exit was officially announced earlier today by his Press Secretary, triggering ripples across the southern political landscape and accelerating what many are calling the “PDP Exodus.”

ANOTHER RECALL PLOT AGAINST SENATOR NATASHA: A TEST OF INEC’S INSTITUTIONAL INTEGRITY AND DEMOCRATIC RESPONSIBILITY

April 13, 2025 | Abuja, Nigeria

In a democracy, credibility is not just built through periodic elections—it is upheld by the actions of institutions when they are under pressure. Today, Nigeria’s electoral umpire, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), finds itself at a crossroads once again as a second recall petition against Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan gains momentum amidst swirling allegations of forgery, fraud, and political desperation.

According to leaked documents that have begun circulating widely online, a renewed effort to unseat Senator Natasha is allegedly being orchestrated by Senate President Godswill Akpabio, former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello, and the current Governor, Usman Ododo.

Genocide in Plateau: The Heartbreaking Story Behind the Land Grab and the Efforts to Annihilate Natives – Governor Mutfwang Exposes the Truth

April 13, 2025 – Jos, Plateau State, Nigeria

Plateau State has long been a hotspot of persistent violence, with the issue of mass killings and forced displacement continuing to make headlines. However, recent comments by the state’s governor, Caleb Mutfwang, have shed light on a chilling new development — one that suggests these attacks are part of a calculated and deliberate genocide aimed at dispossessing native communities of their land.

Since 2023, over 250 lives have been lost in the state, and thousands of innocent people have been affected. The violence has surged again after a brief period of calm. In recent weeks, several villages in the Bokkos and Bassa local government areas were attacked, resulting in over 50 deaths.
