- “Mr Macaroni saw me on set one day, I just finished the two scenes I was called for and he escorted me to my car, he offered to give me fuel money and handed me 200k. Even the person that called me for job for those two scenes only gave me 50k. Macaroni still called me for another job with Pete Edochie another day and gave me 1 million Naira for just a scene” Chief Peter Fatomilola Reveals How Mr Macaroni Has Been Good to Him

ADC National Youth Leader Replied Cmrd. Zulkifilu Dalhatu The statement reads: My brother Zulkifilu Dalhatu, I watched your video twice. The first time, I heard your anger. The second time, I heard the hurt beneath it. You spoke of meetings that ran into the night, of hunger and thirst, of court battles and of young people you kept asking to be patient. Then you asked, “Where is the justice?” You deserve an answer to that question. We have worked together, and I remember when you bought your party ticket and came to my office. I will not pretend your disappointment is small, and I will not abandon you halfway through a journey we have shared. You said something else that stayed with me: “I am still young.” You are. One appointment cannot measure everything you have given, nor should it decide everything you can still become. I have heard your account of what you were promised ealier. I will reach out to you personally and help bring that conversation to life. You have every right to seek a meaningful role and, one day, to seek leadership of the youth wing through the party’s processes. My recent appointment to lead youth mobilisation carries a duty to make room for young people with the courage to work and to question us. That includes you. You entrusted your affairs to Allah. The Qur’an reminds us: “Perhaps you dislike something which is good for you … Allah knows and you do not know” (Al-Baqarah 2:216). I cannot claim to know what Allah has written for either of us. I only know that families sometimes misunderstand one another, then sit down and put things right. You have announced your departure publicly, but We have not received a formal resignation. I would like us to speak before that decision becomes final. In my new role leading youth mobilisation, I want to hear what went wrong and help secure a meaningful place for you to contribute. I will reach out personally, and we can take your concerns to those responsible for the appointment. If you still aspire to lead the youth wing, pursue that ambition. We may disagree along the way, as families do, but you belong in the ADC family you helped build. I believe your place is here with us, rather than in the APC or elsewhere. You once asked what would distinguish the ADC from the APC if we failed to practise justice ourselves. That is a challenge we should take seriously, not an argument to silence. You have also posted recently, “TINUBU MUST GO!” If that remains your conviction, come back and help us finish the work we started: organise young Nigerians, earn their trust and make our case at the ballot box. Come home, Zulkifilu. We still have work to do together. Balarabe Rufai ADC National Youth Leader 25th September, 2026

I joined party leaders, members and supporters in Akure to welcome Eyitayo Jegede, SAN, former Attorney-General of Ondo State and two-time governorship candidate, as he formally joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC). Welcome to ADC, sir. Together, we have work to do.

I was in Jalingo a few days ago; all I can say is that President Ahmed Bola Tinubu will get more votes in Taraba State than he did in 2023. Facts are stubborn according to my friend @ManLikeIcey

IT’S TIME TO GET TO WORK. OVIA IS CALLING. For Ovia Federal Constituency, Hon. Ethan Osazemen Uzamere is presenting himself as a candidate for the House of Representatives on the platform of the African Democratic Congress. As the conversation around 2027 #Ovia2027

So they typed all the questions for him not to lamba 😂😂😭😭 I strongly believe the mad man in Upper Iweka gave him the advice.

For a while now, I’ve been sharing my leather bag designs here. It’s been a wholesome experience sharing this new chapter of my life. I thought to drop an honest update on where the brand is heading next. I am intentionally building Kímbàlì properly from the ground up. 🤭

Every Parent should watch this video. Now I understand why that father followed his daughters to the toilet despite the backlash he faced. We live in very dark times

BREAKING NEWS: ATIKU LEADS TMG POLL WITH OVER 80,000 VOTES The latest poll reportedly conducted by the Tinubu Must Go (TMG) Movement has recorded a significant lead for former Vice President Atiku Abubakar ahead of the 2027 presidential election. According to the reported results: Atiku Abubakar: 80,000+ votes — 73.6% Peter Obi: 22,500 votes — 22.3% Others: 4,100 votes — 4.1% The figures, if independently verified, show Atiku receiving the largest share of votes in the reported poll. The development comes at a time when the Tinubu Must Go Movement is engaging leading opposition figures over the possibility of a single opposition candidate for the 2027 presidential election. Recent reports say the movement has called for dialogue involving Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi and other opposition figures. If the reported poll results are adopted as a basis for the movement’s consultations, Atiku could emerge as the preferred candidate among those who participated in the poll. However, any formal endorsement should only be reported as confirmed once the TMG Movement officially announces it.

Benue people love H.E Atiku Abubakar. He's our trusted, competent and experienced candidate for the job.

4/ This is the fundamental distinction that Robert Dahl, in his theory of polyarchy, identified as the difference between authentic democracy and its counterfeit. Democracy requires not merely elections but free organisation and opposition, free expression, and alternative sources of information. When a ruling party systematically destroys these conditions—through physical terror, bureaucratic and judicial harassment and  formal payment and enlistment propagandists; it is not merely attempting to  rig an election. It is dismantling the very possibility of democratic dissent. The ADC ticket, by contrast, represents what Jürgen Habermas would recognise as the deliberative alternative: a politics that takes its arguments to the public space, that subjects its policies to rational scrutiny, and that measures legitimacy not by the decibel of threats but by the quality of outcomes, hinged on recorded achievements in previous responsibilities. The 2027 election will therefore be a referendum not merely on candidates but on the Tinubu  regime of the APC. On one side stands the politics of organised violence, where the ruling party APC has transformed the state institutions into an instrument of terror, (using the EFCC to harass opponents, the police to arrest dissenters, and  thugs to threaten and kill campaign volunteers). On the other side stands the politics of deliberative democracy, an opposition ticket that is taking its policy arguments directly to the people, promising to make Nigeria affordable again, offering the Atiku Economic Recovery Plan with a production subsidy designed to lower PMS costs while building domestic refining capacity, and harping on a governance model that produced Nigeria's highest GDP growth when Atiku chaired the National Economic Council. The APC knows it cannot win a contest of ideas, especially because lived experiences of citizens cannot be fooled by propaganda. That is why it has chosen to wage a war of intimidation and constitute itself into a terror group. But there is a limit to what terror can achieve in a society that has tasted democratic possibility. The young man killed in Abua-Odua, the family home burned in Aluu, and the opposition leaders harassed by the EFCC (just to mention a few),  are not signs of strength. They are the desperate spasms of a ruling party that has run out of arguments and is now running out of time. As Hannah Arendt reminds us, every act of political violence is also an admission of political failure. The APC's terror is the confession of a party that knows it cannot win on merit. Nigeria has seen this before. In the final years of military rule, the state also tried to suppress its way to legitimacy. It failed. The ballot box, when it finally arrived, delivered its verdict with crushing finality. The APC would do well to remember that history. No amount of thuggery, no volume of "orders from above," and no quantity of sabre-rattling can subvert the people’s will. THE END

Yesterday in Kano, I stood with the TTA team at Gezawa Market, not in some air-conditioned hall, but among the real people who keep this country alive. We went to the traders, the hawkers, the ordinary men and women who wake up before dawn and still struggle to feed their families. We carried the message of H.E. Atiku Abubakar to them because 2027 will not be decided on online. It will be decided in the markets, in the villages, and in the hearts of those who have been abandoned. The APC and Bola Tinubu have turned government into a private estate. They make noise about reform while the masses groan under hunger, hardship, and hopelessness. We will not sit in Abuja and pretend. We will not only post online. We will keep going to the people. Every Nigerian who still loves this country must play their part. Use your voice. Use your influence. Use whatever little power you have. Together we must remove Tinubu and the APC in 2027. We stand with Atiku Abubakar not for titles or contracts, but because we want a Nigeria that works for the local traders, the farmer in the village, and the young person who has been told to keep waiting. This is not politics as usual. This is a fight for the soul of our nation. May Atiku/Amaechi succeed. May the people finally win.

2/ More recently, on September 18, 2026, an ADC member named Mr Kamadiyoi was killed in Odua Local Government Area of Rivers State while preparing for a party meeting. In Isiokpo, Ikwerre LGA, three ADC members were arrested during a meeting on charges of cultism based on what police officers described as an "order from above." In Osun, Governor Ademola Adeleke has publicly alleged that police officers colluded with APC thugs to intimidate voters, with an officer nicknamed “London” deployed from Port Harcourt specifically to disrupt polling. All these while, a serving senator and an ally of President Tinubu, Senator Francis Fadahunsi, the APC senator representing Osun East, was featured in a video circulated in which he was reported to have instructed APC supporters to “kill” members of the rival Accord Party. In Kaduna, suspected APC thugs attacked ADC supporters and vandalised vehicles on September 16, 2026. The Chairman of Kuje Area Council openly  instructed residents to vacate the council area if they did not intend to vote for the APC. These are but few examples of what democracy has come to mean under President Tinubu and the APC.   Hannah Arendt, writing on the nature of totalitarian terror, observed that its essence is not merely the punishment of opposition, but the destruction of the very space in which opposition can exist. When citizens cannot gather without fear of arson; when candidates cannot campaign without fear of their supporters being attacked or killed; and when the police become the enforcement wing of a political party (as we recently saw in the attack on a political meeting in Delta State) the civic space in which democracy lives is extinguished. What the APC has engineered is not merely voter suppression; it is the systematic demolition of the public civic sphere itself. The terror is not an aberration; it is the logical terminus of a political party that can no longer win consent through ideological engagements and must therefore obtain consent through coercion. Beyond all these forms of intimidation, the APC also understands that physical violence, while effective, is crude and cannot, on its own, be sufficient against a citizenry that is increasingly fed up. As boastful architects of anti-democratic subversion, they have also engaged in more sophisticated forms of intimidation against opposition political parties and figures through the machinery of the Nigerian bureaucracy. Guillermo O'Donnell, in his work on bureaucratic authoritarianism and what he called the "brown areas" of democracy, zones where the rule of law is suspended and state agents operate with impunity. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, created to fight corruption, has been repurposed as a political police force. In August 2025, the EFCC detained former Sokoto Governor Aminu Tambuwal over allegations of a suspicious withdrawal of N189 billion, launched an "urgent" investigation into former Imo Governor Emeka Ihedioha's seven-month tenure, and began excavating files on Senator David Mark, who left office as Senate President in 2015, more than a decade ago. All three are chieftains of the ADC opposition coalition. Atiku Abubakar, the ADC presidential candidate, described the pattern as "a continuation of the Tinubu-led administration's agenda to harass, intimidate, and decimate the opposition." No one is saying that those in the opposition coalition should be immune to graft or any form of legitimate criminal investigation but when examined comparatively with politically exposed figures in the ruling APC, the selectivity is grotesque. Former Delta State Governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa was under EFCC investigation until he defected to the APC, at which point, in the ADC's words, "his files vanished like morning dew." Let's not talk about the dramatic sequence of the so-called Kogi White Lion and the EFCC chairman.

THE APC’S AUTHORITARIAN TURN AND THE POLITICS OF COERCION: THE WAR AGAINST THE BALLOT By: Sopriala Membere (@SoprialaMembere)
Columnist, Scholar and Member CRA Advocacy Network ——————————————— Max Weber, in the foundational lecture that gave modern political science its vocabulary, defined the state as that human community which successfully claims the monopoly of the legitimate use of physical force within a given territory. This definition scholars have pointed out, is not merely descriptive; it is diagnostic. When a ruling party begins to privatise that monopoly—when it transforms the police, the anti-corruption agencies, the digital surveillance apparatus of the State, and the informal networks of political thuggery into partisan instruments—what remains is no longer a State in the Weberian sense. What remains is a syndicate: an organised criminal enterprise that wears the costume of government while functioning as a protection racket. Nigeria, in the twilight months of 2026, is living through this theoretical nightmare in real time. And the sentence that unlocked it was spoken not in a dark room but in broad daylight, by a sitting president who should have known better. "All is fair in politics." President Bola Tinubu uttered those words in July 2026 while receiving Catholic Bishops, and in doing so, he did not merely offer a casual reflection on the rough-and-tumble of democratic contestation. He issued a philosophical charter for lawlessness and a licence that dissolves the distinction between the legitimate coercion of the state and the predatory violence of the street. Between July 2025 and September 2026, the ADC and other opposition political parties have documented a systematic campaign of violence against opposition political meetings, the destruction of party property, assaults on participants, and threats against citizens because of their political preferences across Nigeria. This is not the random turbulence of a raucous democracy. It is the patterned choreography of a ruling Party (APC),  that has run out of ideas and has reached for the gun. To understand what is happening, one must move beyond the mere thought electoral malpractice and into the conceptual territory of competitive authoritarianism. Steven Levitsky and Lucan Way, in their seminal work on the subject, describe regimes that hold elections but systematically tilt the playing field through coercion, patronage, and the selective application of the law. Nigeria under President Bola Tinubu fits this typology with disturbing precision. In Edo State, the ADC secretariat in Benin City was attacked, and gunfire was directed at the residence of former Governor and leader of the ADC H.E John Odigie-Oyegun during a gathering of political leaders. The police confirmed the incident and promised an investigation. That was February 2026, yet till date, no arrests have been made, nor any official  prosecutions. In Rivers State, the home of an ADC member, Isaiah Thomas, was attacked by armed men barely 24 hours after campaigns officially opened; the assailants ransacked his residence, looted property, and set buildings ablaze after failing to find him at home.   1/

The only mission that matters to me is Atiku’s presidency. God will do His best for him and make him the next President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

This is what China looks like! ✨ Thanks to socialism with Chinese characteristics!
