Once a governor defects to the APC, governance often mutates into a grotesque performance of entitlement.

The hunger to impress vanishes. Complacency creeps in like mold—quiet, stubborn, and destructive.

Innovation dies not with a shrug. Decisions that once sparked growth are replaced by ceremonial nonsense, photo-ops, and recycled rhetoric.

And now Akwa Ibom, a state that for over a decade stood as the eastern corridor’s vanguard of growth, risks being lobotomized—its strategic edge dulled by party loyalty over public service. I’m genuinely alarmed.

Thank God Enugu, Abia, and Anambra haven’t bent the knee to the center. That disalignment is a strange blessing—it keeps governors alert, uncomfortable, and thus able. Because when re-election isn't guaranteed by party machinery, performance becomes the only real currency.

I thought this man was a Man of God, so why his defecting? Is that not betrayal?

RoxyBrownAutos:
Is the controversial budget prepared by suspended Governor or the one from sole .

Prepared by Wike.

Soludo is just a book intelligent person but not smart …. Some of his policies have shown he’s just sound academically but not experienced in the field, he can make a good adviser because he does well on researches but he’s not smart enough to understand governance and it’s implementation

Is he not aware or did he not research that a covered drainage system is more practical and beneficial than an open one?

FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has voiced his opposition to the idea of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) zoning its 2027 presidential ticket to the North. In a firm statement, he declared, “I’m building the PDP, not tearing it apart,” signaling his stance on internal party unity and zoning debates

Wike will give to you dont worry, prepare to stand against Tinubu in 2027

Donu Kogbara, International Rights Activist has said many of Fubara ers felt betrayed when he said his spirit had left Government house.

Fubara needs to make his mind up; he has maintained a dogged silence except when we asked that we align with Tinubu’s renewed hope agenda. This is not what you expect from a PDP governor who is being attacked by President Tinubu.

"Fubara needs to step up or step down. If he doesn’t want his job, he should give it to his deputy, and if she doesn’t want it, someone constitutional can step in, but preferably not another one of Wike’s nominees; we have had enough of him."

look for the next person to if he does not need your

why do you just mind your business and celebrate your failure here in Nigeria.

bigpicture001:
...With the increasing number of political spinless opposition and leaving just OBI as the lonely voice in the opposition, it is very clear that Nigerian politicians are a bunch of "anywhere belle face"...

They lack conviction of ideology, political philosophy and real promise to the people, their allegiance nos only to any ruling party...

This is showing a trend that if the president dare attempt to do a third term, the whole of the nation's political , legislative and judicial structure will b in a roaring ... Tinubu is prime to go for a term time in office as there appear no opposition to fight for the implementation of the constitution....

What do u think..?

You are not far from the truth, with defection spree, if we do not have strong opposition, then third term is sure even a fourth term, the suffering is going to be very long.

The guilty are always afraid.

advanceDNA:


The boys has always look like Fubara...no cap

Pple look like persons they are unrelated to anyways

n
hmmmmmm

mohbadliveson:
The boy looks angry or is that his natural look?

If that is his natural look, fear dey catch me oo. This one won't smile if he becomes Rivers governor

Wike should send his son to finishing school to learn how to smile in public, who is he fighting with?

APOPTOSIS:
Looks more like Fubara than his father.
Fubara must have done a Good Job
Has Eberechi's facie but resembles Fubara

na another matter you want to bring come

CoronaVirusPro:
Misplaced priorities!

They should be calling for the resignation of Fubara for peace to reign, because even if the law and constitution is strictly adhered to, he still will be impeached.

Fubara’s resignation is what should be demanded at this point.

and make Wike the governor abi ?

I was under the impression that all the necessary documents had already been released. What additional documents are being referred to or released again?

Seems you work in the sector or you know much about this. Realistically when will they be up and running ?

Let’s be realistic while operations will eventually commence fully, it’s unreasonable to expect a refinery that has not been working for over 15years to resume optimal performance overnight.

The refining process is complex. Crude oil does not immediately yield PMS (petrol); there are several by-products that are processed first before reaching the stage where PMS is produced. This progression takes time and cannot be rushed.

In some cases, modifications to the original plant design may be necessary due to evolving requirements or outdated components and that too requires time and careful engineering. Teams are working around the clock to bring these refineries back on stream.

It is therefore unfair and misleading for individuals especially those who should understand the technicalities to make sweeping, inaccurate claims that misinform the public. Let’s allow the professionals to do their work and their efforts with facts, not sensationalism.

ask your energy expert when he visited the refineries with proof, not sitting in his office to conclude

Warri, Port Harcourt, and Kaduna Refineries Were Never Coming Back to Operations -Emmanuel

The entire commissioning that was shown to Nigerians on television was a charade.
Kelvin Emmanuel, Energy Expert

https://x.com/ARISEtv/status/1917339089113579779?t=T3gd09bUvRYmUp1JZpH8pA&s

That information is completely incorrect. PHRC Area 5 is fully completed and currently operational—actively refining. Areas 1 and 2 are also nearing completion.

It is disappointing to see such misinformation being aired. Arise News should conduct proper field verification rather than relying on individuals spreading inaccurate claims. Broadcasting unchecked information misleads the public and undermines the efforts being made on the ground.

Media platforms have a responsibility to fact-check and provide balanced reporting especially on such critical national matters.

In a letter dripping with biting sarcasm, Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan offered what could be described as a profuse “apology” for the “grievous crime” of maintaining dignity and self-respect in the Senate President’s presence.

This is following the controversy between the suspended Senator representing PDP, Kogi Central, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, and the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, over allegations of sexual harassment, Sen. Natasha has issued a sarcastic and satirical apology to Akpabio, reigniting discussions about gender dynamics and power struggles within Nigeria’s legislative chambers

Some of the current issues could have been avoided with a bit more maturity and restraint. At times, it's wiser to overlook certain matters and focus on the bigger picture. Unfortunately, this situation seems to be causing unnecessary setbacks

Wonder where this photo was taken and what year?

Seems like when he was working as a Banker

which banker? if this kind banker approach you will open an in that bank, he looks like an estate agent

zoedew:

I disagree. Omo-Agege can choose to become more strategic and eat the humble pie in the APC Kitchen while the new Sheriff in town and Gandollar are wining and dining at the table. That way he bids his time and can stage a come back. APC no they forgive if you jump ship just because the party s someone else over you.

No pie for him to eat, he has to wait for another 20 or more yrs because after now the governorship would go to delta south, which maybe the turn of the ijaws, then north before coming to central, which pie can he eat that would last that long

vicdom:

Lol.... Na Omo-agege get this sub ooo. I pity him shaaa. This defection would crumble Ned and Agege gov ambition. I see Agege jumping ship to the other side (maybe PDP) to challenge the governor in 2027 during his reelection.

He will be moving back to PDP, along with Ogboru and their followers, I do not see him with sheriff working together

ericmor:


Read message to understand. This is not about the award or invite anymore, it is about what you said about Dino ignoring him and I mentioned how funny and double mouthed some Nigerians are

His behavior in public spaces continues to draw criticism. It's likely this same demeanor contributed to Dino Melaye's decision to distance himself from him. At his level, more maturity and decorum are expected, especially when engaging with peers.
