2027 Kabba/Bunu Seat: APC Urged to Reject Candidates With Poor Polling Unit Records

Image
That’s a valid concern about candidate credibility and party loyalty ahead of 2027. The core issue: A candidate who could not deliver their own polling unit for the APC in 2023 — from the presidential to the governorship election — and who consistently loses in his Ward should not be the party’s flag bearer for Kabba/Bunu State Constituency. If results from 2015 to 2023 show a pattern of defeat at their own polling unit, it raises serious questions about grassroots influence and electoral viability. Why this matters for APC: -Polling unit performance is the first test. If a candidate cannot win where they live and vote, it is hard to convince the wider constituency they can deliver the whole seat. - Party strength depends on reliable structures. Giving the ticket to someone with a weak track record risks losing the seat to the opposition, regardless of how strong the party is at the state level. - Governor Ododo’s responsibility: As the party leader in Kogi State, His Excel...

Kabba/Bunu State Constituency: Call for Transparent and Inclusive Primary Election

Image
The issue surrounding the forthcoming primary election in Kabba/Bunu State Constituency has become a matter of urgent public interest, requiring clarity, fairness, and strict adherence to democratic principles. Despite ongoing discussions and speculations, it is important to state that the Independent National Electoral Commission has not released any official statement regarding the court judgment affecting the inclusion of Kabba/Bunu Constituency I and II in the ballot. This uncertainty makes it even more critical for due process to be followed. In light of this, all aspirants across both constituencies have maintained a united position: regardless of the final outcome concerning Constituency I and II, there must be a credible, transparent, and inclusive primary election that allows every qualified aspirant to participate fairly.

2027 SHOWDOWN: Motunrayo Olonikadi Insists on Open Primary, Rejects Pressure to Step Down

Image
Tensions are rising ahead of the 2027 House of Assembly elections in Kabba/Bunu as Hon. Motunrayo Idowu Olonikadi has firmly rejected mounting calls for her to step down, instead demanding a transparent and open primary process. In a strongly worded statement released by her media team, Olonikadi’s camp expressed “utter dismay” over what it described as attempts to force her withdrawal from the race. The statement condemned such moves as “anti-democratic,” warning that democracy must be anchored on credible contests rather than what it termed “induced consensus.” The camp further alleged that certain political actors, particularly within Oke-Koko ward, are orchestrating a coordinated effort to pressure aspirants into stepping aside for a preferred candidate. According to the statement, such actions represent a “voodoo style of democracy” and undermine the principles of fairness and inclusion. Distancing herself from what was described as “ignoble and reckless acts,” Olonika...

PAPER NOISE VS REAL IMPACT’: GROUP DISMISSES KOGI LGA ‘NO CONFIDENCE’ VOTE AGAINST SEN. KARIMI

Image
Lokoja – Supporters of the Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial District in the National Assembly Sen Sunday Karimi have dismissed a recent “vote of no confidence” purportedly passed by stakeholders in Kogi Local Government Area, describing it as “paper noise” that does not reflect the will of the people. In a statement signed by Maliki Tudun Wada, released on Tuesday, the group argued that the senator’s track record across Kogi LGA contradicts claims of non-performance, citing visible projects and interventions in education, water, welfare, and youth empowerment. “You’re claiming ‘no confidence’ in a senator who turned GSS Kotonkarfi into a ₦1.2 billion modern school; put solar-powered boreholes across wards in Kogi LGA; supported families during Ramadan, Easter, Salah and Christmas; gave ₦100,000 bursaries to over 100 students in 2024 and 150 in 2025; and funded women’s small businesses across communities,” the statement read. “And somehow that equals failure?” The g...
