‘Why Tinubu Must Arrest, Investigate, Prosecute Peter Obi, Aisha Yesufu And Sarah Ibrahim’

Published

The factional Publicity Secretary of the Labour Party (LP), Arabambi Abayomi, has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to arrest, investigate, prosecute the former presidential candidate of the LP, Peter Obi.
In an open letter to Tinubu, Abayomi said the President needs to uphold the rule of law and restore public decorum.

The factional LP spokeswoman also called for the arrest, investigation and prosecution of activists, Aisha Yesufu and Sarah Ibrahim for their roles in inciting treasonable felony cyber-stalking and cyber-bullying.

He stated that he is set to file a Mandamus suit at the Federal High Court in Abuja to compel Tinubu, as the President and Chief Security Officer of the nation, to direct relevant agencies to perform their constitutional duty of investigating the trio.

According to him, Tinubu must ensure that the same laws that protect Peter Obi from defamation are applied equally to hold him and his associates accountable for their own extensive and inflammatory statements.

His open letter read: “I am compelled to write to you today regarding a matter of grave national importance that strikes at the very heart of our democracy, the rule of law, and the dignity of the highest office in the land: the Presidency of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“My attention was drawn to a seven-day pre-action letter of demand served by the legal representatives of Mr. Peter Gregory Obi on Mr. Deji Adeyanju. In it, Mr. Obi demands a retraction and apology for statements he deems defamatory, made on August 21, 2025, in which Mr. Adeyanju critiqued his political standing.

“The profound irony of this action cannot be overlooked. This is the same Mr. Peter Obi who, on October 11, 2023, held a press conference in Abuja where he audaciously and publicly challenged your identity, your parentage, and the authenticity of your academic credentials. He demanded you provide personal historical details to him, orchestrating a media spectacle that caused undeniable national embarrassment and sowed seeds of doubt and discord.

“While Mr. Obi now rushes to his lawyers to protect his own reputation from criticism, his political movement has been defined by a sustained and malicious campaign of calumny against your person and office. His key allies, such as Aisha Yesufu and Serah Ibrahim, have consistently and publicly referred to your government as “illegitimate”—a blatant and seditious disregard for the final and authoritative judgment of the Supreme Court of Nigeria which affirmed your election.

“Every day, on various social media platforms, countless individuals affiliated with Mr. Obi’s movement engage in unchecked libel, openly referring to you in the most derogatory and criminal terms without any consequence. This creates a dangerous imbalance where one political figure seeks the full protection of the law for himself while his supporters operate with impunity, eroding the sanctity of our national institutions and the dignity of the Presidency.

“Therefore, Your Excellency, I urge you in the strongest possible terms to direct the Department of State Services (DSS) and the Attorney-General of the Federation to:

“1. Investigate and Arrest: Immediately investigate, arrest, and question Mr. Peter Obi, Aisha Yesufu, and Serah Ibrahim for their alleged roles in inciting treasonable felony, cyberstalking, and cyberbullying against the Nigerian state and your person.

“2. Uphold the Rule of Law: Ensure that the same laws that protect Mr. Obi from defamation are applied equally to hold him and his associates accountable for their own extensive and inflammatory statements.

“3. Send a Clear Message: Demonstrate that no individual, regardless of their political status, is above the law. Nigeria must be a country where freedom of speech is respected, but where deliberate falsehoods, seditious rhetoric, and attempts to undermine the legitimacy of a constituted authority are met with the full force of the law.

“I have accordingly put my legal team, led by Barristers Anderson Asemota and Mawah Monday, on notice to file a Mandamus suit at the Federal High Court in Abuja. This suit will seek to compel you, as the President and Chief Security Officer of the nation, to direct the relevant agencies to perform their constitutional duty.

“It is time to end this era of impunity and restore respect for our nation’s leadership and institutions.”

FLAME & FURY Shocking moment Texas election candidate Valentina Gomez BURNS Quran with a flamethrower as she vows to ‘end Islam’

Gomez has previously filmed herself torching two LGBTQ books

THIS is the shocking moment a Republican Texas election candidate shared footage of herself torching the Quran with a flamethrower in a vile Islamophobic campaign ad.

In the video, Valentina Gomez claims her goal is to “end Islam” in Texas – despite Muslims making up just one per cent of the state’s population.

Gomez, who is running in the GOP primary for Texas’ 31st congressional District, caused outrage after posting the video of herself burning a copy of the Muslim holy book on X on Monday.

She is heard saying in the video: “America is a Christian nation, so those terrorist Muslims can *** to any of the 57 Muslim nations.

“There is only one true God, and that is the God of Israel.”

This is not Gomez’s first display of Islamophobic views.

Politician and APC chieftain, Adamu Garba, says the biggest beneficiary of the return to Democracy in Nigeria is the South West.

In a post shared on X, Adamu examined all the regions that have had a go at the Presidency and Vice Presidency and according to him, the South West and the North West are the beneficiaries.

He went on tio state that the South East and the North East have had zero representatives occupy the number one and two positions, He asked if this can be corrected as Nigeria heads to the polls in 2027. His post reads

‘’Current Discussion and Permutations within the Political Elites in Nigeria. North-South Presidency. By 2027:

1. The South would have had 18 years of Presidency of Nigeria since 1999

2. The North would have had 10 years.

For VP.

1. The North would have had 18 years on a VP slot while the South would have had 10 years.

Deep dive into the regions.Nigerian fashion trends

South:

1. South West would have had 12 years of Presidency

2. South South would have had 6 years of Presidency

3. South East would have 0 years of the Presidency.

North:

4. North West would have had 10 years of Presidency

5. North East would have had 0 years of Presidency

6. North Central would have had 0 years of Presidency.

For VP slot:

South:

1. South West would have had 8 years of VP

2. South South would have had 2 years of VP

3. South East would have had 0 years of VP.

North:

4. North West would have had 6 years of VP

5. North East would have had 12 years of VP

6. North Central would have had 0 years of VP.

Thus, the biggest beneficiaries of the Fourth Republic are the South West. They would have had 12 years of Presidency and 8 years of VP from the entire Southern Slot.

The second beneficiaries are the North West, with 8 years of Presidency and 6 years of VP slot, from the entire Northern slot.

Then the South South with 6 years Presidency and 2 years VP.

Then the North East with 12 years of VP.

Meanwhile, the regions less fortunate are the South East and North Central, both with 0 years of Presidency and VP.

A lot of questions are currently being asked: When south is mentioned in political equations, where is south really? Are all south onboard with the current arrangement?

Also the North, where is North really? are all north onboard with the current northern arrangement?

When the two whole zones have zero participation in the whole system, can the current arrangement be truly inclusive?

Is there a better way to evolve a new structure as we approach the 2027 election where regions hitherto excluded can find a better position at the table?

Yes, democracy is a game of numbers, but would inclusivity become a centerpiece in the name of national unity and cohesiveness?

More questions than answers. We shall see how it goes.

Jonathan: ‘If He Chooses ADC, We Will Zone Presidency To The South’ – Party Insider

Published

By

Fresh reports have emerged that a powerful bloc within the African Democratic Congress (ADC) is courting former President, Goodluck Jonathan to fly its flag in the 2027 presidential election.

According to party insiders who spoke with Nigerian Tribune, Jonathan is said to be giving serious thought to the proposal. However, he remains conflicted over his loyalty to the Peoples Democratic Party, which brought him to national prominence.

A source close to both Jonathan and the ADC confirmed on Friday that the former president is being positioned as a top contender by influential figures within the party.

The source said, “Former President Goodluck Jonathan is worried that certain persons with strong links to the Villa may still be in control of the PDP and may mess him up if he seeks the ticket of that party.”

The source added that the ADC leadership believes Jonathan’s candidacy could tilt the scales in its favour in 2027.

However, Jonathan is reportedly hesitant about running on a platform that would pitch him against the Labour Party’s Peter Obi, whom he believes enjoyed massive Igbo support during his 2015 campaign.

The source said, “His only issue with the ADC is that he does not want to contest against Peter Obi because he believes that the Igbo people supported him in 2015 even more than his own Ijaw people.”

The source further explained that the ADC was ready to restructure its zoning arrangement to accommodate Jonathan.

“If he chooses our party (ADC), we will zone the presidency to the South. If he does not come to us, we will have no option than to go to the North because politics is about numbers and winning,” the source said.
