  Oshiomhole Convinced Us To Make Obaseki Governor – Philip Shaibu Philip Shaibu, the former Deputy Governor of Edo State, has disclosed that his choice to support his former boss, Godwin Obaseki, stemmed from his respect for Adams Oshiomhole, the former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC). According to Naija News, Shaibu shared his doubts about Obaseki during an interview on Channels Television’s Political Paradigm program on Tuesday. Shaibu admitted that he lacked confidence in Obaseki's leadership even before they took office on November 12, 2016. He explained that despite his initial hesitations, he ultimately backed Obaseki out of respect and based on the assurances provided by Oshiomhole. He stated, “Obaseki is not a politician. We made him governor because Oshiomhole persuaded us. I was not among those who thought he should not be governor; it was because I didn’t have faith in him. “When he was nominated to run, I was the last person to oppose him, but ...

 Mozambique Elections: “I will take office as President-elect on January 15” – Opposition leader

In Mozambique, the presidential candidate supported by the Podemos party, Venâncio Mondlane, has promised more protests against the results of the October 9 general elections and stated that he would take office as “President-elect” on January 15, 2025 without clarifying how he would achieve this goal.


“On the 15th of January 2025, I will be sworn in as the elected President of Mozambique,” he announced in a live broadcast on his Facebook page, a channel he has been using to communicate with the country.


The presidential candidate also guaranteed that the ongoing demonstrations in the country would continue. He announced a series of measures lasting until January 15, 2025, namely, free movement through tolls throughout the country and the suspension of tax payments, according to Club of Mozambique.


Next phase announced on December 16


“Today (Wednesday), we will finish our fourth phase, but the demonstrations will not stop. We will take a break, and then we will start the turbo V8 phase, which will be announced on Monday (16-12),” he said.


The fourth phase of protests demanding the “restitution of electoral truth”, brought blockades of the roads connecting the country’s capital, Maputo, and other interprovincial routes.


“If the regime still wants to maintain the election results, if the fraudsters want to maintain the idea of establishing another illegal, illegitimate and unelected government, we will have no alternative but to move forward after this phase,” Mondlane said.


“Starting tomorrow, all tolls must be free and open until January 15. We will suspend the payment of all taxes and fees before January 15,” he added, without explaining how this idea would be put into practice.


Despite strong police activity, protesters used stones, tree trunks and burning tires to block the main roads in the centre of the Mozambican capital, which prevented many Mozambicans from getting to work.


According to the non-governmental organization Plataforma Eleitoral Decide, the post-election protests have left at least 110 people dead since October 21.
