ADC CLARIFIES POSITION ON OSUN GOVERNORSHIP ELECTION

Image
By


The African Democratic Congress would like to affirm our earlier statement that videos and social media posts claiming that the party has “picked” a candidate are false and should be disregarded.

For the purpose of conducting the primaries to elect the party’s flagbearer for the 2026 governorship election in Osun, a timetable has been released and widely publicised. All aspirants are urged to adhere strictly to the guidelines.

For the avoidance of doubts, the ADC remains committed to the highest standards of internal democracy, anchored on a free, fair and transparent electoral process.

Mall. Bolaji Abdullahi
National Publicity Secretary, ADC

Ajakurama Development Initiative Rebukes Edo Deputy Governor Over Misleading Claims on Abere–Ajakurama Land Dispute,

By
PRESS STATEMENT Ajakurama Development Initiative Condemns Edo State Deputy Governor’s Careless and Misleading Remarks on Abere–Ajakurama Land Dispute The Ajakurama Development Initiative (ADI) strongly condemns the recent remarks made by the Deputy Governor of Edo State, Rt. Hon. Dennis Idahosa, regarding the long-standing land dispute between the Abere and Ajakurama communities. This dispute, earlier in 2025, resulted in violent attacks, severe persons injuries sustained by Ajakurama youths.

By Egbemavoice, THE IJAW YOUTH COUNCIL (IYC) EGBEMA CLAN (EGBEMA KINGDOM) IN EDO STATE EXPRESS REGRET OVER SUPPORT FOR DEPUTY GOVERNOR HON. DENNIS IDAHOSA FOLLOWING THE ABERE AND AJAKURAMA LAND DISPUTE The IYC Egbema Clan of Edo State, (Egbema Kingdom) under the leadership of Comr. Engr. Lawoni Dumofaye the Egbema Clan Chairman, issue this statement with deep disappointment and a profound sense of betrayal. Our people stood firmly behind Deputy Governor Hon. Dennis Idahosa during his election, believing he would act as a voice of justice and a defender of truth. However, his recent comments on the Abere and Ajakurama land judgement have proven to be lacking in fairness, historical accuracy, and respect for the communities that gave him their mandate. The judgement in question is not just a legal matter, it is an attempt to distort the truth of our ancestry and undermine our heritage. Instead of defending justice, the Deputy Governor made statements that dismiss...

IPF Condemns House of Representatives’ Threat to PAP Administrator, Chief Dr. Dennis Brutu Otuaro,

By
8th December, 2025 WORLD PRESS CONFERENCE  PRESS STATEMENT IJAW PUBLISHERS' FORUM (IPF) On the Threat by the House of Representatives Against the PAP Administrator, Chief Dr. Dennis Brutu Otuaro (PhD.) The Ijaw Publishers' Forum (IPF) expresses deep concern over the 72-hour ultimatum issued by the House of Representatives Public Accounts Committee (PAC) on Dr. Dennis Brutu Otuaro, alongside threats of issuing a warrant for his arrest. While Sections 88, 89, and 128 of the 1999 Constitution empower the National Assembly to conduct oversight functions, we strongly appeal for caution in applying these powers to a programme as delicate as the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP). It is necessary to state clearly that the news and allegations being referenced by the Committee relate to an Amnesty Audit Report of 2021, a period long before Chief Dr. Otuaro assumed office. Chief Otuaro was appointed in 2024, and therefore should not be associated with issues ar...

PAP Dismisses Video Containing False Allegations Against Otuaro ,

By
Reads Press Statement PAP Dismisses Video Containing False Allegations Against Otuaro  The Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP) has dismissed as baseless and malicious the recent allegations made by Mr Jude Gbaboyor against the Administrator of the Programme, Dr Dennis Otuaro. In a video circulating on Facebook, which he purportedly recorded in the United States, Gbaboyor levelled grave and unfounded accusations against Dr Otuaro, including claims of murder, ritualism, and kidnapping. However, the PAP in a statement issued by the Special Assistant on Media to the Administrator, Mr Igoniko Oduma, on Monday, stated that the video in which he called for the Administrator's removal, represents yet another desperate attempt by Gbaboyor to defame Otuaro's character and undermine the credible work of the Programme. The statement added that Gbaboyor now a fugitive committed the crimes of cyberstalking among others and decided to flee the country to evade arrest and prosecu...
