Catholic Priests Not Like ‘Fake Bishops’, Atiku Blasts Presidency’s Attack On Onaiyekan Presidential Candidate of the African Democratic Congress ADC, Atiku Abubakar, has condemned the Presidency’s attack on the Catholic Church and John Cardinal Onaiyekan, accusing the President Bola Tinubu administration of growing intolerant of dissent and uncomfortable truths. In a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication, Phrank Shaibu on Sunday, Atiku said the Presidency chose intimidation and political attacks instead of reflecting on the substance of the cleric’s message.

 I don’t regret saying Edo election is do or die affair – Obaseki


Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State says he does not regret saying that the September 21 Edo governorship election is a do-or-die affair.

The governor had recently made the statement, which has made him come under heavy criticism, especially from members of the opposition party a few days ago.

Obaseki, while speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Thursday, maintained that the election is a do-or-die affair because the Edo people will be doomed if the All Progressives Congress, APC takes over the state.

According to him, the opposition party has perfected plans to rig the election in their favour on Saturday, warning that the state’s people would resist them.

Obaseki also expressed his lack of confidence in the police before the election, accusing them of bias.

“It’s a do-or-die affair because if they do, we die, the level of impunity, the level of recklessness we see in the opposition party if they take over Edo state, is finished – that is the end.

“If you see the evidence of what they have done, the blatant way they have gone about it. It is like they forget that the police are being funded by taxpayers’ money, Nigerians taxpayers’ money. They should just be a bit more professional and unbiased,” he said.
